Reference librarians can help you find data. They can help you form a strategy for your search for data, discuss your research question, and access data sources. To reach them:

• Drop in at the Research/IT Desk
• Contact your liaison librarian for discipline-specific data searches (e.g., help finding data on the environment)

Social Science Librarians can help with more involved data search questions. 

Kristin Partlo is the library liaison for data. Contact her with suggestions and questions about the data collection.
