Ask a Librarian at The University Center

• Who may use this service?
  This service is intended for students, staff and faculty of The University Center and it's partners. If you are not affiliated with The University Center, we can reply to your inquiry, due to staff limitations, only if it concerns the university or partner libraries. You may use the form or e-mail directly to the librarian. Questions submitted Monday through Friday will be answered within 24 hours. Questions submitted Saturday or Sunday will be answered on the following Monday excluding holidays. If a question involves in-depth research which cannot be answered within a 24 hour period, the patron will be notified by e-mail.
• Who will receive my question?
  Your question will go to The University Center Reference Librarian. If it is best answered at a partner library location, your question will be forwarded to that location and you will be sent a copy of the message.
• What kinds of questions can I ask?
  Any question you might ask at a reference desk in any library. For example:
  • Where should I begin to look for information on this topic?
  • Can you supply me with...a web address, a quotation source, an abstract or citation, a historical fact, a biographical fact?

  And just about anything else, in support of research and instruction; only the request for lists of items (i.e. addresses) is not appropriate; any single query will be responded to as quickly as possible.  Thank you for understanding our limitations and restrictions.
