What is a PL?
A PL works individually with a student or group of students to provide research guidance tailored to their particular needs.
The PL and student discuss the research goals for an assignment or paper. The PL then recommends online and print resources in the YU Libraries and advises how to obtain outside sources, as well as how to integrate and cite sources.
Several personal librarians have already met with thesis students enrolled in the Honors Programs on both Wilf and Beren Campuses.
