Research and Reference Services

Save Time. Ask a Librarian!

Reference Librarians help people...

• Find information on a topic
• Develop research strategies for papers and projects
• Search library catalogs, article databases, and the internet
• Locate facts and statistics

We also...

• Answer questions about the services and resources of the Duke libraries
• Provide instruction on the research process and the use of the library
• Refer people to information sources beyond the library

The Reference Desk is open for in-person visits on the Perkins 1st floor and phone calls at 919-660-5880. You can also contact us by email, IM, or make an appointment.
