Faculty Resources: Research Help

The library offers instructional sessions for your classes and personalized consultations with librarians. To request a session, use the Library Consultation Request Form, providing the desired date, time, and menu options. Alternatively, you can contact the Information Literacy Librarian, Paulette Johnson, via email at paulettej@andrews.edu or by phone at 269-471-3158. Collaborating with your liaison librarian, they will design a session tailored to your students' needs.

Please submit your request at least one week in advance, including the course name, course number, and the number of students who will be attending, or specify the topic you need assistance with. Providing the librarian with a copy of the assignment the students will be working on is also beneficial.
