Training & Orientation Programs for Research Assistants
The library provides an extensive orientation and training program for summer research assistants. Orientation consists of registration for library services as well as a presentation on special services for research assistants. Training sessions cover research techniques and topics relevant to the faculty's research needs.
Research assistants who work during the academic year may obtain a copy of the library's Research Assistant Guide for detailed information on library services. You may also request a research appointment to meet with a reference librarian to discuss special needs.
All research assistants are encouraged to register for library services. Registration benefits include:
- Free Lexis and Westlaw printing to high speed faculty printers.
- Emails of library announcements affecting Research Assistants.
Summer research assistants need to register for Summer Access to LexisNexis and Westlaw before they can be connected to the free printers.
