Meet with a Librarian

Librarians are available to meet with you individually or as a group. You can reach us at medical-librarian@duke.edu or you can submit a question through our online request form. We are also available by chat Monday – Friday from 9a – 5 p.

Liaison librarians are research librarians who act as a link between the library and its patrons – students, residents, faculty, and staff. Please feel free to reach out directly to your liaison librarian.
