Magrath Email Reference Service

The Magrath Library Reference Unit will answer reference queries submitted via e-mail which are pertinent to the subject matter we cover, or we will refer you to a more appropriate library.

We can help you with:

• citation verifications
• book and journal holdings
• address information (up to ten such individual items per query)
• brief statistical information
• databases and other resources for particular topics

We try to answer reference questions submitted by email within 1-2 working days. For more immediate assistance please try the University Libraries' chat reference service.

If you require more in-depth assistance, consider making an appointment with a St. Paul reference librarian/subject specialist (under Get Library Help by Subject).
