Talk to a Librarian during Drop-In Hours 

Typically, you'll find a librarian at the reference desk during the spring and fall semesters. Don't be shy! We're here to help. If it's more convenient, remember that you can also always access AskAway, an online chat service that connects you with library specialists from throughout BC who are happy to assist you. 

Drop-in Librarian Hours (Spring & Fall Semesters) 

Note: Sometimes librarians have meetings or things come up, so they might not be available during drop-in hours. Reach out and we'll find a time that works for everyone! See how to connect with a librarian below.
