Need some assistance? Fill out this form to get some help from one of our knowledgeable librarians! We can answer technology questions about setting up Libby, Hoopla, Kanopy, the Minuteman app, the new Aspen catalog, e-readers, and more. Additionally, we can assist with reference questions, information literacy, proctoring exams, setting up an email address, how to use Google Docs or Microsoft Office, and online databases. We cannot offer medical, legal, or financial advice, and we cannot proofread documents. Each session will be planned for 30 minutes and every effort will be made to accommodate preferred time slots but changes may need to be made due to scheduling conflicts.
