Frequently Asked Questions

How can libraries join Ask a Librarian?

Libraries interested in joining Ask a Librarian are invited to contact ocul@ocul.on.ca.

How does Ask a Librarian work?

Users enter the chat service through graphic chat buttons or pop-up chat invitations located across their library’s website. Clicking on the chat button or invitation launches a chat window, where the user can enter their question. Ask a Librarian staff answer incoming chats using LibraryH3lp’s chat software and documentation on the Ask wiki space. When the service is closed, questions can be sent to the home library by email, or the user can be routed to a specific webpage.

The service is open 67 hours per week, and multiple operators are scheduled for each shift to handle demand. During all hours of service, chat is available in both English and French.

Who staffs Ask a Librarian?

Ask a Librarian is staffed by librarians and library staff from participating Ontario libraries. During evening and weekend hours, trained students or recent graduates of Masters-level programs in library or information studies also staff the service.

What information are users asked to provide?

At the beginning of the chat session, Ask a Librarian users are asked to indicate their name and level of study, in order for staff to provide personalized research assistance. Answering these questions is voluntary, and patrons can choose to use the service anonymously. Staff may request the patron’s email address during a chat session in order to follow-up on a research request, but users are not obligated to provide it.
