Even if you can't always get to campus, we want you to feel at home in our library, whether here in person or online. Check out these great ways to get to know us better:
As a School of Theology student, you can easily get help from any of Theology Library's librarians.
Email sthref@bu.edu or your personal librarian, Stacey Duran (sbattles@bu.edu).
Fill out our reference interview request form (also available from our homepage by clicking "Get Reference Help" from the side menu).
BU Libraries offers a 24/7 chat service Ask a Librarian.
Call our circulation desk at (617) 353-3034, drop in on our virtual reference hours (to be announced) or, if on campus, stop by our reference desk for in-person advice. Our reference desk is open 12-4pm on Mondays through Fridays during the semester.
Finally, feel free to use social media to ask questions: on Twitter, we are @busthlibrary, on Facebook reach us at www.fb.com/busthlibrary, and on Instagram reach us @butheologylibrary!
Below you will find our handouts and slides from the August 2018 Library Workshop and Orientation, given in DM901 on 8/8/18. You will also see that two portions of the slides, "Setting up EBSCO Journal Alerts" and "Introduction to Citation Managers: Zotero" now exist as videos.
Stacey Duran, the Instruction & Collection Development Librarian, is the Personal Librarian contact for all distance education students. Personal librarians can answer reference questions and provide guidance about how to find or use library resources. They also send out regular emails with information on special library events or new library resources available to you. More information on our Personal Librarian program can be found here.
Stacey's office is across from the Reference Desk in 201C. She can be contacted directly at sbattles@bu.edu. Stacey will also hold virtual reference hours online occasionally throughout the semester, so that you can "drop by" and ask any questions. More information about those will be sent out in her "Personal Librarian" emails.
