QUICK Library Research HELP. University Library provides assistance in many ways during library hours, especially during academic sessions:
Please note that the library's QUICK HELP service can't help you learn to use a Purdue resource unless the resource is also available at University Library.
For ADDITIONAL HELP, contact resource/research specialist Randall Halverson. I'm happy to support your classwork or research via email or Canvas message suggestions or by appointment. Email is an effective medium to send questions: rhalver@purdue.edu or rahalver@iu.edu. For best results, please include your course and section number and background details, especially
details about your project topic, such as your personal or professional interest in the topic,
whether you want to focus your topic and explore possible research directions, or search for "big picture" overview sources or in-depth specialized sources, etc.,
search resources and strategies that you've already tried.
To request a RESERVATION to meet by Zoom, MS Teams, or in-person, please use the library's "Make an Appointment" page, selecting my name from the list of subject librarians. If my time options shown on the calendar don't work for you, you are welcome to send 2 or 3 days/times you could meet by email. I'll respond. :~)
Sample open access resources (OER) listed below are linked at the Open Textbook Library or at the OER Commons.
