Barry Law Library Reference and Research Services: Home

Reference, Research, and Instruction at the Barry Law Library

UPDATE FOR SPRING 2021: Reference services will be remote during the SPRING 2021 semester. If you need Reference assistance, please email LawReferenceLibrarians@barry.edu. 

Visit the hours page for Virtual Service  Hours for the SPRING 2021 semester.

Please visit our Remote Learning and Research page for help using Canvas, Webex, and more. 

The Barry Law Library employs Reference Librarians who hold Juris Doctors in addition to Master's degrees in Library and Information Science. They all have professor status as well, and they teach their own Advanced Legal Research classes and guest-lecture on research methods in other professors' classes.  

The best way to contact them with reference or research questions is to e-mail LawReferenceLibrarians@barry.edu, a shared e-mail account that allows them all to receive messages. 

Barry Law students may also fill out a Personal Research Consultation (PERC) request form to request a session with a Reference Librarian.

​Reference Librarians are typically available to meet with you, help with research, and answer your questions, Monday through Thursday, from 8:30 AM to 8:00 PM and Friday, from 8:30 AM to 6 PM. Reference Librarians are available during the weekend by appointment (PERC) only. 

We cannot give legal advice, but we can always guide you toward resources to answer your questions and hopefully solve your problems.

We are here to help you, so let us know if you have any questions at all.
