Faculty Guide: Contact BLS Librarians

All Brooklyn Law School (BLS) faculty are welcome to contact BLS librarians through:

• Email: askthelibrary@brooklaw.edu
• Text: 718-734-2432
• Chat (Link: Need Help? is active during reference hours.)

This is a complete list of BLS Library staff members.

Tip: BLS librarians have created approximately 60 research guides.  The audience for these guides ranges from our community (two BLS librarians co-authored Resources for Becoming Actively Anti-Racist) to students in clinics and externships (Housing Justice and U.S. Immigration Law Research Starting Points) to students in paper-writing courses (Animal Law, Gender and the Law, Law and Capitalism and Native American Law).  Librarians also maintain: Casebooks, Study Aids & Guides for Law School Courses & Bar Exams and Faculty Remote Teaching Guide.  Our library staff highlights 1L Resources, Tips & Tools to first-year law students.  A faculty member can request creation of a research guide.    

Tip: Each week, BLS librarians review a list of 100+ forthcoming and new sources available for purchase.  Librarians recommend many sources for purchase based on our faculty's teaching and scholarship interests.  Please keep us informed!  BLS faculty also can make purchase recommendations to Acquisitions Librarian/E-Resources Manager Jeff Gabel, to a librarian liaison or through askthelibrary@brooklaw.edu.

Each BLS full-time faculty member has an assigned reference librarian who serves as their primary contact person for library research and instructional services. Your assigned librarian can provide research support for projects and classes, topic-specific research training to student research assistants and content recommendations for your Canvas courses.
