It's okay to ask questions. The librarian listed on the right side of the page is specifically assigned to support gerontology students and faculty. We also have librarians available nights and weekends (see the Help information at the bottom right).
We welcome questions from all of our students, whether you are in the St. Louis area, elsewhere in the U.S., at an international campus, or taking an online class.
Visit our webinars page to see tutorials that will sharpen your research skills and offer helpful guidance in doing a capstone, thesis, or advanced research project. Recorded webinars may be watched at your convenience. Live webinars offer an interactive experience with Webster U. librarians present to answer your questions.
