Pete McDonnell | Librarian: For Graduate Students

Greetings and welcome / welcome back to Bemidji State University! We're glad you're here!

Why reach out to a librarian? Great question. Librarians can are the people you can turn to with questions about using the library resources for research in your classes. We can provide personalized assistance for “all things Library”, including the following:

• Give you a tour of the library.
• Help you brainstorm a research topic.
• Help you create research strategies.
• Help you identify library resources (articles and books) and services, including in-depth assistance on navigating library databases.

As a graduate student, there will be expectations for you to conduct more in-depth research. As the librarian for the following programs/departments, I can help you with this higher-level research:

• Biology
• Chemistry
• Criminal Justice
• Education
• Nursing
• Physics
