This is especially useful when you have already talked to a librarian at the Reference Desk and still need additional in-depth assistance. The Research Assistance Appointment forms can be obtained at the Reference Desk or online . After you have submitted the form, a librarian will contact you within a few days by phone or e-mail to arrange a meeting. At the request of the faculty member a Bibliographic Instruction session can to arranged to teach research techniques, electronic resources in Music and more. These sessions are for the entire class and take place during class time.
Many graduate students return to the academic setting after years working as a professional.
During those years the research process changed dramatically as it became entirely computerized. The library offers a variety of free Electronic Workshops each semester to introduce the techniques of electronic research. These workshops are available to the entire campus community but we have found that these workshops are heavily attended by graduate students who are then able to quickly gain electronic research expertise. You may ask any question here that you would ask in person at the Reference Desk. Expect an answer in your e-mail before 5pm the following workday.
