The Reference Department has implemented a new service called Book a Librarian. Please tell your customers about this fantastic opportunity for dedicated attention by the Reference Librarians at the Central Library. This information should be posted to the web site soon.

Need help with a research project? Don’t know how to find the latest information? Are computers and the Internet a mystery? Let us help.
