Peer Research Consultants Online


We are undergrad and grad students from a variety of majors and we’re trained to help our fellow ‘Canes. We work closely with librarians and staff for training on how to assist our fellow students with:

  • Developing search strategies
  • Finding scholarly resources
  • Creating and managing citations
  • Facilitating meetings with other Learning Commons experts

We are available for immediate assistance daily through our chat service in the sidebar. You can also request a meeting with a Peer Research Consultant:

Or, please send a question to our Ask a Librarian email:

To access research help on all three campuses, check out our comprehensive Ask a Librarian service.

We also work closely with our Learning Commons partners, the Math Lab, Creative Studio, Modern Languages, the Writing Center, and more!
