Book a Librarian

Individual advice

Are you writing a term paper or about to write your bachelor's, master's or doctoral thesis? Are you looking for more in-depth specialist literature for your topic that includes not only books but also articles from journals and anthologies? The Internet offers a flood of information, but is it really reliable and quotable?

Please feel free to make an appointment with our information specialists!

 

WHAT IS BOOK A LIBRARIAN?

Book a Librarian is an individual advisory service for all users of the University Library. We offer this free service for detailed questions that take more time and go beyond the general need for advice. You tell us your topic or your questions. We take time for you and adjust each individual consultation to your personal information needs.

On which topics do we offer individual advice?

  • Services offered by the UB
  • Efficient literature research for your scientific work: thematic search using Katalog+, DigiBib and subject databases
  • Digital resources: e-books, e-journals, databases
  • Interlibrary loan and document delivery: Order books and articles
  • Literature management with Citavi
  • Quoting correctly and avoiding plagiarism
  • Technical standards (only in Kaiserslautern)
