Research and GIS Services

Research

Staff in the Map and Government Information Library are on hand to assist with locating resources in our collection, both print and online. Researchers are encouraged to independently explore our holdings in the catalog and to submit specific questions to the UGA Libraries’ contact form. 

An appointment is required for in-depth research assistance on-site and can be scheduled by contacting us at mapsinfo@uga.edu. If in-depth research is required and patrons are not able to perform that work on-site, the UGA Libraries maintains a list of Independent Researchers for Hire  who are willing to conduct research for a fee. 

GIS Services

GIS Librarian Meagan Duever offers research and instructional support across multiple GIS platforms, including ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Online, ArcGIS StoryMaps, QGIS, and geospatial R packages. Her services include assistance with the discovery, access, and integration of spatial data for research and academic assignments, as well as support for software and data troubleshooting, cartographic design, and map production. To schedule GIS assistance, please contact her at duever@uga.edu.

Classes and Tours

The Map and Government Information Library staff is happy to conduct tours of our facility for classes, small groups, and individuals. In order to ensure availability, classes and groups are asked to schedule tours with a staff member at least a week in advance. Please contact us for further information.
