You can also request a consultation at any phase of your research, and VML librarians will answer your questions, or introduce you to our expert colleagues across the Libraries.

Publishing & Promoting
Even after your research is done, the VML can help you get your work published and can be an instrumental part in measuring and increasing the impact of your research. The Libraries' Publishing and Copyright center can consult on rights management questions, and we can help you navigate your options for Open Access. Our Research Impact and Metrics team can show you how to maximize the impact of your work, and can provide guidance when it comes time to communicate the level of that impact to others.
Veterinary Research Tools and Resources
Research in veterinary medicine can present its own unique set of challenges and opportunities, and the VML staff is prepared to work with you through the whole process. In addition to scheduling a consultation, we maintain a subject-specific page of databases and other resources, as well as a curated collection of clinically relevant electronic resources.
