Graduate Students' Guide to the Library: Overview

Welcome

Belk Library ASU

This guide is designed to assist you with your journey through graduate school. The University Libraries provides access to print and electronic resources, databases, and tools to support your research and professional development.

Librarians are available to assist you with questions you have about conducting research. Academic departments have an assigned library faculty liaison who is your first point of contact for your curricular, research, and technology needs. Your librarian is a resource for subject specific research and collaboration, University Libraries' digital and print collections, library instruction for your courses and much more.
