Research Services and Collections Department
The Research Services and Collections Department constitutes what was formerly known as Reference and Instructional Services. Even though renamed and reorganized, this department will continue to provide the same research support and instructional services as always for the University community and for the general public.
As part of the change, we no longer maintain a reference desk on the first floor of the John C. Hodges Library. Instead, we offer research services in the Commons on the second floor and in the Map Library on the ground floor. For more information on how to reach us through instant messaging, live text chat, e-mail, telephone, or in person, click on the AskUsNow! link.
If you have any questions or concerns about the changes in the department, please contact Jane Row (jrow@utk.edu), head of Research Services, or Molly Royse (mroyse@utk.edu), head of Research Collections.
