There's a new service here at the library, Roving Librarians!
No, they are not robots, but real human beings (who happen to be librarians) who can help you with your reseach questions wherever you are working in the library. There's no need to stop at the research desk- the research desk can now come to you!
How does this work? There are two ways:
1. The roving librarians make walking rounds during their shift at the research desk...feel free to approach him or her with a question. First come, first served!
2. If a roving librarian is nowhere to be found, then you can call the research desk. The roving librarian on call can help you over the phone and will determine what needs to be done next.
The phone number for the research desk is
(610) 683-4165
When does the roving librarian rove?
When the research desk is staffed, there's a chance that a librarian may be available to rove to you!
It may not always be possible--but it doesn't hurt to ask. This is a new program with a small staff, so please be patient! If you have any thoughts or comments, feel free to send me an email anytime!
