Support for Research
- Library Collections

newspapers, and journals. Whether you're looking for books, journal articles, maps,
government documents, music, or other materials, we have something for you.
- Research Services and Collections
- Need help finding articles for your paper? Can't find your way in the stacks?
Want a reliable web source?
Whenever you have a question, just drop by
the Research Assistance desk in the Commons North.
Don't have time to come to the library? Just give us a call at 974-4171, send us an
e-mail, or ask your question through
AskUsNow. Just look for the
AskUs.Now! logo throughout the
Libraries' web site.
- Consultation
- Although we're happy to help you at the Reference Desk, some questions take time to
answer. If you have an in-depth research question or would simply like some one-on-one
help without the interruptions at the desk, make an
appointment through Research Assistance or
with a Subject
Librarian.
- Data Services
- Data Services provides assistance
in identifying, locating, and acquiring machine-readable numeric data files
from a broad range of sources, such as surveys, government agencies, and non-profit
organizations. For more information, contact Eleanor Read at 974-0011 or
dataserv@utk.edu.
Technology Support

- Located on the 2nd floor of Hodges Library, the
Commons provides computers with a wide variety of

There's also a OIT HelpDesk and Computer Support Service
Center if you need help with passwords, wireless, and other computer problems.
- Practice Presentation Room

Practice Presentation Room located inside the
Commons. The room comes equipped with a SMART Board interactive whiteboard and software as
used in the Technology Enhanced Classrooms across campus.
