Mortola Library Research Assistance Center
Mortola Library Research Assistance Center
The Research Assistance Center offers a proactive teaching and learning space for research related consultations, workshops, and meetings. The availability of this room has increased the capacity of the Library for outreach to the faculty, staff, students and the local area community around the Mortola Library. This room may also be reserved to practice group presentations. Contact Steve Feyl at least 2 days in advance to reserve a time.
The Mortola Library has programs to help you with your research. Using our Research Assistance Center, located behind the stairs in the library, we are able to give one on one help.
The Fall workshop calendar will be available in September.
Open Hours: Stop by during any of these for general help with your research or any library related functions.
ILL: If you need help with Interlibrary Loans stop by during these times. We will teach you how to complete a request and set you up with all accounts.
Citation: If you need help with Citation Styles (MLA, APA, etc), stop by during our sessions to learn how to properly cite your research. Don't forget to visit our online citation style guide for the basics.
20 Minutes for Access: Stop by during any of these sessions and we will set you up with every account that you may need while in the library. This includes getting a barcode, Illiad, and Infotrieve accounts.
Library Basics: If you need a refresher course on how to do library research, basic database searching etc, stop by and a librarian will help you lay the groundwork for your work here. This will be helpful if you missed University 101's library session, are a transfer student or a returning student.
