Welcome Public Health students and researchers, this guide is designed to help connect you to the resources you need for your studies and research. I am the liaison librarian for Public Health and I am available to talk with you about your research via email, phone, or in person. I enjoy meeting and talking with students and faculty about their research, so please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions you might have.
The Libraries offers many workshops to help graduate students find, organize, share, and preserve research information and data
Interlibrary Loan (ILL): is a service provided free of charge to Purdue students, staff, and faculty. Many of our databases have an icon called "Find It @ Purdue Libraries" that you can click to check if we have the full text or access to that resource. If we do not have full text, you will see an option to "Request via Interlibrary Loan". For articles requests are generally completed within 2 business days, while physical items will take longer depending on how far away the lending library is. Please note, textbooks cannot be requested through this service.
