"When you have a question about the library, talk to a reference librarian."
If you've ever taken an instruction class at the library, you've probably heard thator something like it! Even though we're all working and learning from home, you can still reach out to the IUP Libraries for support with your coursework, research, and teaching.
Reference Support
IUP's librarians will provide chat and email reference support from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Monday through Friday during the Summer I and Summer II sessions (June 1-August 6, 2020). Please note that reference services, including email reference, will not be available during Early Summer session.
IUP Libraries chat reference supports text chat and Zoom videoconferencing, so no matter the distance, we can help you with the trickiest searches. If you prefer to contact us by email, submit your question through Ask a Librarian and we will respond to you as quickly as possible.
IUP librarians have also compiled an extensive FAQ about resources, services, and policies.
Instructional Support
