QuestionPoint (Collaboration between OCLC and LC) network for virtual reference service is now running the "Ask a Librarian" from the nh.gov state's homepage. The reference department is currently using it for online reference questions and has a live chat "Chat with a Reference Librarian" from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., Monday-Friday.

Workshops - again began the electronic literacy workshops (had previously been concentrating on training for the databases that we had been providing access to) and had a good response. Our library staff offered several Genealogy courses, a Homework Helpers, Ready Reference, Advanced Internet Searching, Web Page Design, as well as Ebsco Searching. Also had several guest instructors, one from Census Bureau covering American FactFinder and NLM on Consumer Health Information.
