Consumer Health Resources
Librarian-Assisted Information Services
The librarians and staff of the Dykes Library are available to help you with health information questions Monday through Friday from 9 am to 5 pm.
We provide in-person, telephone, and e-mail information services.*
Most consumer health information assistance is free. Extensive searches, article retrieval, and questions from corporations may have charges attached. The librarian assisting you will discuss what if any charges there will be to answer your specific question.
