Library Orientation for HEC Students

How to Get Help with Research, Writing, & APA

Please contact the library if you need assistance with research, writing, or APA. We are available via email, Zoom, and in-person by appointment to assist you. The HEC Library is not open on weekends, so make sure to plan accordingly. If you have a paper due on the weekend, we recommend emailing us by Thursday morning to ensure we have time to get back to you before close of business on Friday. Please note we are unable to review discussion board posts for students. Contact Shilo Smith or Josh Brown.
