- Advocates for faculty and staff needs within the library
- Expand scholarly reach by depositing scholarly work (posters, presentations, reports, etc.) in the campus repository: DigitalCommons@UNMC
- Guidance for copyright questions
- Navigation of the scholarly publishing and impact landscape
- Librarian facilitated literature searches from the basic literature search to a systematic review search
- Interlibrary loan, a no-fee service, for materials that are not in the library’s collections
- Assistance with writing at the Writing Center @ UNMC

Volunteer faculty and clinical instructors can ask their home department to request an ID and password from UNMC ITS in order to access the library’s online journals, books, and databases in support of their role as an educator. Volunteer faculty may request literature search services and interlibrary loan for educational purposes in direct support of teaching or grand rounds. See the Collection Access and Services for Special Groups policy for more information.
