Librarians are here to support you!  We can help your students brainstorm for topics and keywords.  We can show students how to use the catalog and databases.  Most importantly, we can save students time by showing them how to most effectively begin and move through the research process. 

Research help is available from the Reference Librarians either in person in Building C, by appointment, via chat, text (855-523-3225 or 855-523-ECCL) or email. If you request an appointment, we will then check our schedule and assign the student to a librarian who will have availability during that time. 

 All research appointments require one business day (24 hours) advance notice.

The ECC Librarians provide Information Literacy Instruction. This also includes providing research guides, teaching about source evaluation, helping with citation, effective search strategies, and more. We partner with you to be a key to student success.
