Abstract:

This paper will explore the various social and technological issues that a library which is contemplating the provision of an electronic mail reference service needs to consider. In addition to providing a brief history of the developments in the provision of electronic mail reference and the application of electronic reference in various types of libraries, this paper will examine the advantages and disadvantages, and how to increase the success of, electronic mail reference systems. The recently implemented electronic mail reference service of the University of Alberta Libraries will be examined.
