This research seeks to analyze the perception of undergraduate students, during the period they are writing their monographs, about the contribution of the Humanities Library of the Federal University of Ceará (BCH/UFC) and about the university librarians who work in that unit. In order to that, we have aimed at: investigating if the students know and use personal and online services offered by BCH; to identifying student's usual information demands regarding the development of their monographs; and, at last, to establishing which activities developed by the librarians students recognize as helpful to assist them with their monographs. As for our methodology, we have adopted a quanti-qualitative approach and an exploratory method. The data collecting procedure has occurred via Google Forms with which we have applied a questionnaire with 10 questions. As for the analysis of the data, we have established analytical categories to deal with the content of the answers. The results point that the students have different levels of knowledge about the services offered by the library; students often seek BCH for activities related to book search and Internet access; they easily make appointments with the librarians and believe that these professionals contribute to the writing of their monographs; students know, in some cases, the services offered by the university librarians, but use them unaware that they are performed by these experts. We have concluded that students have in general a positive perception about the role of the BCH/UFC on their education, but need better instructions to enjoy support offered by these professionals and by the information unit.
