Research Help
An invaluable resource for students
Students in Sustainable Energy Engineering and Policy and other programs within Carleton University have access to Subject Specialists at the MacOdrum Library – An invaluable resource. Have a look at the Subject Guides and Course Guides. Some subjects have guides specifically for Graduate Students. Both the Subject and Course guides will list the best sources for your research on a given topic. These include recommended databases for journal articles, finding other academic material, grey literature, citation, government information, statistics, and information on research methods and theory, literature reviews and publishing your research and so forth.
Online Help for students within the Sustainable Energy Engineering and Policy program is available to you by contacting the following people by email who can assist you with search strategies for using the Library databases, suggestions for which databases would work best for your topic, citation assistance, help with grey literature, government information, etc.
Robert Smith, for computer science and computer engineering
Scott Turner, for mechanical engineering and information technology
Aleksandra Blake, for Public Policy and Statistics
We can meet over Zoom if the questions you have are complex. Contact another research support specialist like me for all your research needs. See the list of librarians and subjects available. You can also use our online CHAT Service to chat or text with reference librarians if you need immediate help in the evenings or weekends.
