Library Research and Instruction

One on One Instruction

The Reference Librarian offers one on one instruction for databases, citation styles, and research methods for faculty, staff, and students. One on one instruction is made on an appointment basis via telephone or by emailing the Reference Librarian. Appointments last from forty-five minutes to one hour. Students, faculty, and staff are given a fifteen-minute grace period. If the grace period is passed, the one on one instruction will have to be rescheduled for another time (unless permitted by the Reference Librarian). The instruction times are determined based on the availability of the Reference Librarian. Appointments must be requested at least 48 hours in advance. Same day one on one instructions will not be available.


Email library@suno.edu or call 504-286-5225 for an appointment.


Online students requiring assistance should call the Library - 504-286-5225 or send an email to me at library@suno.edu
