***APOLOGIES FOR RECEIPT OF DUPLICATE POSTINGS***
Friends/
I am pleased to announce the creation of a new global
Facebook Group
named
_Mercury: OnCall-OnDemand-OnSite Reference Services_
[Oh No! Gerry, Not Another Facebook Group ! ] [ ]
_Mercury_ is intended to serve as forum and venue in which
interested
(and uninterested and disinterested) [ ]
individuals can discuss the
development and implementation of OnCall / OnDemand / OnSite
Reference
Services.
Two primary approaches are currently In The News:
ONE: Use of chat reference services for patrons to request
DeskSide
reference service from library and IT staff where the
Library Comes To
The Patron.
TWO: Use of cell /phone by patrons to request DeskSide
reference
service from library and IT staff where the Library Comes To
The
Patron.
***PLEASE Visit / Join / Participate! in Mercury***
