Reference & Instruction

Phone: 920-424-4333
Location: Polk Library
Reference & Instruction librarians teach information literacy classes and assist faculty, staff and students with research. Faculty and staff may contact these librarians to develop and implement information literacy instruction most appropriate to the needs of the course. We can help students understand the research process, learn to locate and evaluate scholarly materials, avoid plagiarism and effectively use information. You may also request a personal research consultation, and a librarian will help you one-on-one with your research need. We can assist you with both on-campus and online learning classes. Use the Chat button on the main site 24/7 to contact a librarian for research help.
