Our Ask A Librarian service allows you to have a typed, real-time conversation with a library staff member to answer any research or referencing queries you may have. Select the link above for previous FAQs that may answer your question.
Patrons can also access the Ask An Ask Advisor service the same way, for queries relating to university life and assistance with assignments and study skills. Our Ask Advisors are UC students who have successfully navigated their courses, and now work with the library to assist other students to navigate their own journeys through UC.
We even have a 'Virtual Room', where you can speak with Librarians or Ask Advisors face-to-face if your work requires a 'fresh set of eyes', or you you just need a little positive reinforcement, so you know you're heading in the right direction.
The chat service is only available at specific times during Semester - refer to the Library's Contact Us page for current times.
