What has Elizabeth got us into now? She is always trying to keep us on our technological toes as much as she possibly can. You'll notice on our homepage right below Library Programs, we now have something new in a box with a green heading that says "Ask Online". Elizabeth set the library up with an account through Meebo http://www.meebo.com/. A librarian will log on to this site and you see "reference librarian is online". You'll be able to write a question right while you are on your computer at home; you don't have to get to the phone and make a call - we're right there at your fingertips! The only hard part will be for the librarian online to remember to mark herself away from her desk when she leaves it and keep the volume up enough she knows she has a message. Otherwise, you'll be writing away and have to wait a bit until she gets back.
