Graduate students have it rough. While you take fewer classes, there is more reading and a higher level of research that is expected of you. Never fear, though! McWherter Library has resources and support just for you. No matter the class, be it a research methods or bibliography class, or your thesis or dissertation, the librarians at McWherter are here to help you.
In this guide, you will find information tailored to the graduate student experience at the University of Memphis, including information on study spaces (including individual study carrels), the research resources and support available to you, listings and links for various workshops held around campus that deal with issues and topics specific to graduate students, and links to important campus and local organizations that all graduate students should be aware of. Further, if you will be teaching courses during your time at U of M, there is an entire page dedicated to resources that the library has at your disposal.
