Abstract:

The article focuses on the implications of virtual references for reference interviewing. It says that various virtual reference services including text-based setting considers a good typist, chat reference turns longer interaction online between patrons and reference providers or librarians, and electronic-mail (e-mail) shortens reference interviews. It cites several tips to conduct smooth reference interviews online such as clear communication and careful reading on patron questions.
