Library Help, Now Even More Helpful!

You may have noticed by our signage and new faces that to the one-time Reference Desk has been added a new service: ITS Help. We hope the campus community will benefit from the pairing of research support and tech assistance at the Research & Technology Desk.

Please remember to direct your ITS queries to the help desk rather than to individual staff so they can be most quickly and accurately dispatched.

ITS HELP

RESEARCH SERVICES
contact: 251-6111 or libref@unca.edu
