If you need help finding sources for your topic, the NCC librarians can assist you. You can visit us in person at the research help desks in the libraries or you can contact us online. Use our Ask the Librarian chat, email us your questions, or call to leave a message. A librarian will respond to you as soon as possible. 

You can also schedule a Book a Librarian appointment to meet on a day and time convenient to your schedule.

Ask the Librarian Chat

Send an Email

You can contact any librarian by e-mail by sending your question to:

We can give you more detailed help if you attach a copy of your assignment to your message. Be sure to let us know the best e-mail address to reach you at, so we can send documents and sources to you if needed.
