Transaction deadlock for select query

Occasionally, I have the following error for a stored procedure which is only a Select query: Transaction (Process ID 91) was deadlocked on lock

My initial understanding was that a select query won't lock a table, or won't cause a deadlock even if the table it tries to query is being updated/locked by another process, but it seems that a select query can cause deadlocks as well.

If I set the isolation level to read uncommitted for the query, will that solve the problem?
