The Montague Law Library provides a Research Assistant Liaison Service to all new faculty research assistants. This service provides the guidance of a professional law librarian, who will advise faculty research assistants on the completion of assigned research tasks.
Benefits of the Research Assistant Liaison Service:
Initial Training Session
Fall/Spring: Upon request, librarians meet with referred research assistants to introduce them to relevant online databases, library services, and library policies that will facilitate their performance. At this time, a Librarian Liaison will be assigned to each research assistant for collaboration and research advice throughout the semester. Interested faculty should contact one of the Law Librarians listed below.
Summer: Librarians will introduce research assistants to a myriad of online databases, library services, and library policies. At this introductory session, each research assistant will meet their assigned Librarian Liaison. Sessions are usually scheduled for early June.
Library Proxy Service for Faculty Research Assistants
This service allows faculty to authorize their research assistant to check out or place holds on library materials held by any Penn State Library directly to the faculty member’s library account.
If you would like to authorize your research assistant to be your “proxy," the form to do so is available online. Please remember that both the faculty member and the research assistant must sign the authorization form.
