What makes L-net work well • We librarians are what make L-net work • Having a local queue is helpful • Seamlessly integrating SMS text messaging into the local queue • Marking chats for follow-up • Mentoring program
What could be better • Patrons think they are getting a librarian from their library • Homework help • Policy constraints between different libraries • Pranksters • Better software
Final Thoughts • Hopefully funding will continue • More specialized training • Discussion forum
