Princeton students, need help with your history research? To make an appointment with me, email ezb@princeton.edu. In your email, please briefly describe your topic and any research you have already done, and suggest some dates/times when you would be available. You can also make an appointment on my online calendar: https://wass.princeton.edu/pages/viewcalendar.page.php?cal_id=84

My office hours for Fall 2009 are Monday 2-4 p.m. You are also welcome to drop in at other times -- if I'm not helping someone else, I will be happy to see you.

And remember: other subject specialist librarians are also available to consult with you. See the list at Consult a librarian.

In an emergency, consult a librarian at the reference desk in the Trustee Reading Room in Firestone. You may also chat live with a librarian most evenings from the convenience of your room.
