- | Reference services are about helping people to find the answers to their questions. Some of these questions may involve, or be about, how to access and download e-content in your library. Helping answer technology questions is, therefore, a valid part of the core service your library provides. Not only are you helping your clients access, borrow or stream library material, you are helping them find answers about how to do this. Sometimes, this will require detailed assistance from you or other staff, and often it will require skill at managing queues. | + | [[About ref-ex|About Reference Excellence]] |
