AAA Library
Reference and Instructional Services

Reference

Librarians in the Architecture and Allied Arts Library offer reference assistance most hours between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Monday - Friday. They may also be reached by e-mail or phone:
Cara List clist@uoregon.edu, Reference Librarian, 346-2200
Ed Teague ehteague@uoregon.edu, Head, AAA Library, 346-1954
The general AAA Library phone number (514)346-3637 may also be used to initiate reference questions.

Questions of a brief, factual nature may be asked using the online reference form. Replies are generally made within 24 hours on weekdays. Examples of appropriate types of email questions are what are the birth and death dates of Vincent van Gogh? or what's the phone number for the Architecture Dept. at Clemson University? Help with more complicated questions should be sought on site or by phone.

Subject specialists may also be contacted for questions especially relevant to their areas of expertise. For information see the listing of UO Library subject specialists

Instruction

AAA librarians routinely provide instruction in the use of information sources. In the ever changing world of information, such instruction is increasingly important. Instructors wanting library instruction for their classes should contact one of the AAA Library's subject specialists.

Research guides

Several art and architecture subject guides are available to assist users in the library as well as those off-site. These guides identify basic resources in a discipline and focus on specific sources as well. The Guides to Resources section of the UO Library website provides links to many guides in a diversity of subjects.

There are also several print guides available in display units nearby the AAA Library's Circulation Desk and Reference Desk.
