• If you're a TA and need to put material on reserve for your class, visit the Reading Lists documentation or the Reading Lists and Reserves page.
• If you are assigning students to write a research paper or to do a project that will require the use of library resources, feel free to contact the SC&I liaison librarians for a consultation and/or a library session with your class. 
• If you are working on a research project with a faculty member, it may be useful for the faculty member to apply for a Research Assistant proxy card on your behalf.
