Electronic Reference Service

Ask-A-Librarian is an e-mail reference service for students, faculty, staff, & alumni of the University of St. Francis. Questions most appropriate for electronic reference are simple direct questions that allow for short answers. Ask-A-Librarian will provide:
  • Answers To Specific Questions - Ask-A-Librarian will find answers to specific ready reference questions. Ask-A-Librarian cannot provide comprehensive or lengthy bibliographies and will contact the requestor for clarification on vague questions. 
  • Referral to Relevant Online and/or Print Resources - Ask-A-Librarian will refer requestors to relevant electronic and/or print sources to search for books, articles, and other materials required for a research paper or project. 


Before submitting questions you may wish to review our tutorials and resource guides. Requestors can expect an answer to their query within one business day. For more in-depth questions, please call the reference desk at 815-740-5041 / 800-726-6500.
