Faculty Services from the Fulton Library

Subject Librarians & Research Assistance

Each UVU department has an assigned subject librarian you can contact for help locating research and using library resources, identifying possible publishing outlets, and determining how often and where you've been cited. If you have a student research assistant or research team, you are more than welcome to direct them to your subject librarian for library instruction or help developing a literature review search strategy. Your subject librarian can also purchase new books and videos for the collections, in support of your research or classroom curriculum.

Find your librarian and their contact information using our Subject Librarians list.
