Research Tutors

LITS Research Tutors offer peer-to-peer research support and instruction for students as well as general research assistance for faculty, staff, and members of the public. By providing assistance in course assignments involving library research, citation and attribution questions, and RefWorks, a citation management service supported by Hamilton College, LITS Research Tutors specialize in information fluencies.

Throughout the academic year, including evenings and weekends, LITS Research Tutors offer personalized service to LITS patrons at Burke Library and at the Virtual Student Help Desk.
