Faculty Assistants

Stanford GSB faculty assistants can use the following library services to support their faculty.

Borrow, Renew, Return

You are permitted to check out material for your faculty by proxy. Just inform the i-Desk that an item is being checked out in a professor’s name.

Research Consultation

Meet with us to learn about our resources and to get help finding information.

Document Delivery

Use this service to request articles, books, and other physical materials be delivered directly to your office on campus — whether it’s at our library, another Stanford library, or off-campus.

Course Reserves

We can set aside materials in advance for students enrolling in your courses. When you request in advance with detailed information, we can process your reserve material by the beginning of the quarter.

Case Study Distribution

The Case Writing Office supports faculty with Stanford GSB case distribution and obtaining cases from other institutions.

Bibliography Management Tools

We provide subscriptions to tools compatible with our databases to help you manage your research references and create bibliographies across multiple citation formats. Some tools are free for any Stanford user, such as RefWorks, while you may need to pay to license others from your research funds. See a quick guide of available tools at a glance.
