Study Tip of the Week
How to use Databases
What are research librarians?
Trying to define your research topic? Looking for fresh sources? Want to work with rare or
unique materials?
Research librarians are specialists who are trained in specific disciplines to guide you
in your research. They are available for one-on-one consults, which can be requested here
(
https://harvard.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_5vY47R1IAq8Uhgh) .
Tip: Ask a Librarian
If you have a quick question or don’t want to book an entire research consultation, the
“Ask a Librarian” tool (
https://ask.library.harvard.edu/index.php) can be of great help!
You can submit questions via email, phone, text, or online, and can expect an answer
within 24 hours.
In the meantime, the “Ask a Librarian” page includes a database of frequently asked
questions that have been submitted by other students.
In addition, the “Ask a Librarian” feature of the Harvard Library website allows you to
instantly message a research librarian Monday through Friday, from 10am to 5pm.
