Slavic Libraries

CREES has two senior professional librarians to serve faculty and students. KU's Slavic librarians are top in their fields and have an international reputation for information management in the Russian, East European and Eurasian area. They are here to provide you with the best reference, referral, acquisition, bibliographic, and other services, and you should take advantage of their presence. The Libraries' Department of Slavic and Eurasian Studies is a gateway to an enormous number of internet research mega sites.

KU Slavic Librarians

Jon Giullian (East Slavic bibliographer)

Geoff Husic (South Slavic bibliographer)

The Slavic librarians can also help you find appropriate drivers for Cyrillic, show you how to download them to your machine, help you conduct specialized searches in both English and Slavic languages, lead you to the best research sites, and show you how to avoid the worst "research" sites.
