Real-time online help from subject librarians available during opening hours.
The League of Information Assistants (LIA) are the virtual subject librarians of different satellite libraries or sections of the Learning Commons. Library patrons may connect with LIA for real time online help for discipline - and course-specific research assistance during library opening hours. Through chat reference facility, LIA answers ready-reference and research questions and provides online bibliographic and technology instruction. As such, LIA will not answer questions related to: (a) computer configuration, maintenance, and troubleshooting; (b) provision of investment, legal, or medical advice; (c) tutoring or homework help; and, (d) job interview preparation.
