IM a Librarian from Facebook or MySpace
March 30th, 2009 Filed Under Services
We have answered well over 600 questions already through the NEIU Library’s instant message (IM) service, and we just launched it last fall. Anytime the Library is open, you can send an IM to an NEIU librarian and get an immediate answer.
Now, we’re expanding the service to offer IM boxes right in our Facebook and MySpace pages. We realize that many of you spend a lot of time in these social networking sites, so we’ve made it easy for you to find us there, too. Here’s how:
In Facebook just visit our page. Then click the Ask A Librarian tab. Click the chat box and start typing. While you’re there, why not become a fan?
Asking a question from MySpace is just as easy. Just visit our MySpace page, click the chat box, and ask your question.
