Research Consultations

Want to talk or make an appointment with a specific librarian?

 

Want to meet on the weekend or when the library is closed?

Send an email to reference@ubalt.edu and we'll do our best to try to accomodate all requests.

How can librarians help you? 
Our librarians can work with any UBalt student, staff, faculty or alumni to find and use information effectively at any point in the research process through:

• Brainstorming and refining activities that can help narrow a big topic into a manageable idea
• Locating sources of information that provide overviews of a topic or identify key questions that are appropriate in scope for your work.
• Developing alternative search strategies for finding new or complementary sources of information to deepen your research
• Applying tools and techniques to help you vet any source of information for truthfulness and trustworthiness 
• Storing and managing data, sources, or citations with Zotero or other tools
• Exploring avenues for publishing your research, including in our institutional repository KnowledgeWorks
