New Research Chat Service!

Do you ever wish you could ask one of the Blackwell Librarians a research question but you're nowhere near the library? Do you ever need help when you're studying upstairs and don't want to abandon your laptop and seat to come down to the Research Desk? Are you a distance ed student who needs research help?

Well, we have great news! Blackwell Librarians have launched a new chat/IM service that works with nearly all major IM providers. So add blackwellref to your friends list and feel free to ask questions during the Research Desk's normal hours of operation.

Some questions are better posed electronically than others. It's not as useful for long, complicated research questions as meeting face-to-face with a librarian, but for shorter questions to verify citations or ask for quick tips/hints, it's ideal!

Find out more information about our new service here!

And, did you know our circulation desk has its own chat service too? Find out about that here!

Help is coming your way!

Feeling stressed about semester deadlines? Need last minute help with your assignments? Help is coming your way! During the week of December 7-11, SU librarians will be available to assist you from 2:00-4:00 p.m. at these locations:

Guerreri Center, commuter lounge area
TETC
Henson

And, as always, a friendly librarian will be at the Research Help desk in the library from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m.

Also, you can listen to our podcast!
