Subject Librarians
Subject Librarians are specialized professionals assigned to specific colleges, departments, or fields of study to provide instruction, resources, and support. They serve as a crucial bridge between the Library's resources and the University community. Subject librarians promote academic success in a wide variety of ways, including:
- Teaching subject-specific information literacy sessions
- Serving as an embedded librarian within D2L
- Providing specialized one-on-one or group research consultations to support student and faculty research
- Creating and maintaining subject and course-specific research guides
- Collaborating with the instructor(s) of record to create research assignments
- Developing and enhancing collections that support the curriculum, including purchasing and weeding materials in their respective disciplines
As subject specialists, librarians enhance the research and learning environment by promoting the effective use of library services and resources tailored to the specific needs of each academic area. Find your Subject Librarian by selecting your area of study below:
