The Reference Desk is located on the main floor to your right as you enter the library. It is staffed by librarians who aid users with their research and help them make the best use of the the library's facilities. The reference librarians offer guidance in any subject using print, electronic, and media resources available at Lawrence, off campus, or on the Web.
A reference librarian is on duty during the following hours while classes are in session:
| Monday-Thursday | 9am - 5pm and 6pm - 10pm |
| Friday | 9am - 4pm |
| Saturday | Not available |
| Sunday | 1pm - 5pm and 6pm - 10pm |
Since reference work frequently draws the librarians away from the reference area, please inquire at the Circulation Desk if you cannot locate a reference librarian when you need help.
