Get Help With Research

A librarian helps a patron at the Research Help desk

Research librarians can help you search for articles, books, statistics, datasets, and more! They can also help you to explore and focus your research topic, and to collect, organize, and cite your sources.

Research Consultation

Every undergraduate major and graduate program at Brandeis has a librarian who specializes in that area of research. We are happy to discuss your research! Email your liaison or set up an online appointment.

We are delighted to set up an appointment to discuss your research or project virtually, by phone, or in person.  We can deliver virtual access to collections whenever possible via Zoom, and in-person research appointments are available Monday-Friday from 10 a.m. - 4 p.m.  Please contact archives@brandeis.edu or at 781-736-4657 for appointments and questions, or visit our website for more information.
