No question is too big or too small, just ask! We answer around 10,000 questions a year from DU students, faculty, staff and community members.
For DU students, faculty and staff, Research Center consultations are a great way to jump start your research or to track down elusive articles, statistics or other information. Subject-specialist librarians will meet with you at any point in your research process, and on any topic. You can request a free, one-hour consultation using our online form, or by phone, email, chat/IM, or in person. Consultations are available seven days a week, and up to 9:00 pm Sunday-Wednesday. For distance students, we also offer consultations by Skype.
Over the past three years, over 99% of those receiving consultations say they would refer a friend or classmate to the Research Center. Find out what they already know – a Research Center consultation will help you with your current research paper or project and will teach you skills to be a more efficient and effective researcher in the future.
