Research Librarians/Liaisons

TTUHSC librarians are experts in navigating scholarly databases and information resources, assisting students and faculty with their research so that they can locate credible, relevant evidence. We teach essential searching skills, empowering learners to evaluate information critically.

A liaison librarian acts as the primary, designated contact between the library and a specific school, instititue, or department. They specialize in their assigned subject area to support faculty and student research, develop collections, provide tailored instruction and are often embedded in courses. They also develop specific guides (LibGuides) for easy access to library resources.
