[OPLINTECH] Chat reference

[Mary Leffler]

Hello!

 

I would like to hear from libraries that are providing chat reference,
especially those libraries who are using free resources, such as Meebo.
Specifically, I would like to know:

 

1.        What software/interface you are using?

2.       Pros?

3.       Cons?

4.       How do you advertise this service?

5.       Approximate Stats (how many patrons use this service?)

6.       Staffing issues/concerns for chat reference?

7.       Hours offered?

8.       And any other comments you would like to add.

 

Please respond off-list.  I will compile the answers and repost.

 

Thanks!

 

Mary
