Foster Business Library

Team Librarian Consultations

The Foster Business Library offers consultations to Business School students engaged in team research projects. During a consultation, a librarian meets with the group to discuss research strategies and suggest resources for the project; a team consultation website, detailing these resources, may be prepared (see examples below). Sessions can be tailored to meet the group's needs. Follow-up is available after the initial consultation.

Scheduling

You may schedule a consultation by one of the following methods:
  • Stop by the Foster Business Library Reference Desk and fill out a request form.
  • Download a Word version of the request form and turn it in at the Foster Business Library Reference Desk. (Right-click on the download link and select "Save Link As. . . or Save Target As . . . .")
  • Fill out a request form online.
Consultations may be scheduled Monday through Friday, from 8AM to 4PM.

Please fill out the form as completely as possible. After turning in the form, your team will be contacted by a librarian within 48 hours to schedule a consultation. If possible, please include a copy of your research assignment with your request form.
