Research attorneys annually prepare research assistants for their challenging summer job of working for faculty. At the beginning of the summer, we give research assistants a complete orientation that discusses:
- How to conduct scholarly research at Cornell University
- How to obtain research materials held on and off campus
- How to print in the lab and have it charged to your professor
- How to use COLTS and get paid
Additionally, all faculty have designated library liaisons who assist with faculty research. These library liaisons are resources for the research assistants throughout the summer. Research assistants are encouraged to contact the designated library liaison with research questions relevant to the professor's area of inquiry.
