April 2012

The Spring semester is coming to a close, but the University Libraries continue to provide new services and resources for University of South Carolina faculty, staff, and students. Read below to learn about our librarian consultation services, the libraries' new mobile website, and resources that may pique your interest. As always, I am happy to help you and your students with any library concerns or suggestions that you may have.

Kind regards,

Andrea

Get personal research assistance with

"Book A Librarian"

USC students, faculty and staff who want help with their research can make an appointment for a free consultation service that provides a person-to-person session with a librarian. The sessions can help identify ways to access and navigate electronic resources; develop search strategies; discover and locate primary source materials; search the web for relevant and reliable information; and locate materials for a literature review.

Schedule a consultation.
