Chat with a Librarian is Pennsylvania’s statewide live chat reference service and is free to all residents of Pennsylvania 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Libraries interested in contributing staff time to Chat with a Librarian benefit by being able to directly serve their own customers on chat, are able to follow-up with their own customers after chat sessions have concluded, and have access to the chat software that also can be used to provide local email-based reference.
CWAL collaborates with 45 institutions that contribute staff time, and represents over 400 library locations!
