By contacting me, the Environmental Studies Librarian, I can assist you throughout your research and writing project. I can work with both you and/or your advisor from beginning to end.

Typically, I help by:

• Offering individualized appointments.
• Purchasing books, journals, documentaries, etc. to help with your project.
• Assisting you in finding books, journals, and other materials for your project.
• Evaluating if a topic is a good senior project by determining if ample information is available at Emory Libraries or nearby.
• Arranging for tutorials and workshops using library research tools, such as Endnote and Zotero

Please feel free to contact me anytime!
