Email Reference
A passion for excellence in a Zen state of mind

Basic EmailThe service is assigned a simple email address provided on the library web site. If user wants to submit a question, they can just click on the link, which in turn launches the user's email software (such as Microsoft Outlook, Eudora, etc.) The user then fills out the email and sends it to the library via the user's email software.
Web Forms User fills out a form on the library web site and clicks a button to send it via email to the library.
Two commonly- used types of email reference

•Simple email (wide open to any type of question) - and
•Could necessitate clarification more often .
•Tracking timely responses can be challenging -
•Stats are usually broadbased - or - depending upon what the library system needs
•Email links depend upon patron’s email client (i.e. Outlook? Web-based?). Patron might have to cut & paste address in.
Email versus web forms: email

•Form’s fields helps think more specifically about question - and - (depending upon how this is used)
•May be too specialized for patron use (an email form for every department and/or service) -
•Tracking and follow up -
•If QP is used
•Keeps everything in one place
•Scripts are easy to configure and use
•Training focuses on the same software
•Reports are consistent with chat and easy to generate
•No additional expense if chat is already used
•Dependency on QP software (maintenance, troubleshooting, updates) and

Hello Cathay Crosby,
The Library of Congress first began using email as a reference tool in 1994. For further details, you can review the following timeline of major milestones in the Library's use of the Internet to share resources with the public:
< http://www.loc.gov/rr/program/bib/libsci/faq.html#11 >
According to the timeline, on November 7, 1994, the Library's National Reference Service (NRS) began a pilot project to respond to reference queries received over the Internet at the email address [email protected] (no longer active). Many questions were referred by NRS to email accounts maintained by other areas of the Library. Later, in the summer of 1995, the National Reference Services established [email protected] (no longer active), a centralized Internet email address for online inquiries to LC. The Library's current Ask a Librarian service (< http://www.loc.gov/rr/askalib/ >) did not debut until June 2002.
I hope this answers your question. If there is anything else that I can do, please let me know.
Sincerely,
The Digital Reference TeamLibrary of Congress
