HuskyCT: Integrating Library Resources — Reference Help - Ask a Librarian

Ask a Librarian Chat Reference

The Ask a Librarian service provides students with access to real-time help from a UConn Librarian. Librarians can provide brief research consultations, help with accessing and using research databases, and provide information about library resources and services.

This service is available in all newly created HuskyCT courses (as of 05/2020).  Reusing an older course?  Follow the instructions below to provide a link within HuskyCT to give students an easy way to connect with the Library and research help!
