Services: Reference

The Van Houten Library reference department has four Technical Reference Librarians (TRLs), each of whom has responsibilities for specific departments. They are skilled at searching the library catalog and the library's subscription databases. Although you may ask for assistance from any librarian staffing the reference desk, there may be times that you need a specialist.

Reference Services are available in person when the reference desk [Find It] is staffed, by telephone, by e-mail, and by instant messenger. Check our "Ask a Reference Librarian" page (http://library.njit.edu/researchhelpdesk/e-ref/) for details.

To identify the librarian responsible for your department, go to the library home page (http://library1.njit.edu/) and select your department from the menu under the heading "Who is my librarian?" It is on the right hand side as you scroll down.
