The Ask Us! box on the Boston College Libraries home page connects students, faculty, staff, and visitors to frequently asked questions about library services.
If you don’t find the information you need, you’ll be able to submit your question and get an answer by e-mail from library staff. (This also helps us build our list of FAQs.) You can also browse questions and answers by topic from the main Answers@BC page.
There are other ways to get help, too, of course, and both the home page and the Answers@BC page offer several of these, including Text a Librarian, a 24/7 Ask A Librarian chat service (shared with other Jesuit colleges and universities), and telephone reference.
