Librarian-in-Residence

The Librarian-in-Residence program brings the Library to you. Once a week, a subject-specialist librarian is located in the Faculties and several research centres to support your teaching and learning, and research needs.

Drop in to see a liaison librarian during scheduled or advertised times, or make a one-to-one appointment in your office. A broad range of services are provided, such as the design of information components within courses and units; and information sourcing and management.

Examples of typical consultations include, but are not limited to: 

  • How to set up alerts to latest research in your subject from key databases and e-journal collections
  • Identifying high impact journals in your research area
  • How to use EndNote
  • One-to-one or group training on leading databases and those relevant to your discipline
  • Providing advice on showcasing your research output through the University research repository, Deakin Research Online
  • Reviewing and recommending publications to update reading lists
  • Putting you in touch with processes for obtaining documents not held by the Library, using the BONUS+ and Interlibrary loan borrowing schemes
