Ask Your Personal Librarian

Each of our librarians is a subject specialist in one or more disciplines. Think of your subject specialist as your Personal Librarian, available to help you —student or faculty — with subject-specific research and instruction. They are here to help you, so please ask them.

For help with general reference questions, contact us by phone at (216) 687-5300 or by email. Text "CSULibrary" to 66746 (add CSULibrary as a contact on your cell phone). Or use our KnowItNow Academic chat reference service.
