Research Consultation Policies

Limited to Georgetown students, faculty, and staff. Requests must be made at least 4 business days in advance to allow time for the librarian to prepare. Consultations are normally scheduled Monday – Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Appointments last 15 minutes to an hour. A librarian will contact you to schedule a mutually convenient time for the consultation. If you are unable to keep an appointment, please contact the assigned librarian or the reference desk immediately, so that another student can be given your appointment time. As a courtesy, we ask that you give us as much notice as possible; at least 24 hours' notice is preferred.
