Online Reference

MSB library system provides online references using Meebo as a Web 2.0 tools. This instant messaging tool was incorporated by the online librarian, and is a reference service that is helpful and convenient for students. First, it allows the students to communicate instantly with the MSB Librarian online and ask questions and have answers right away. Secondly, the students can use different messaging systems such as AIM, Yahoo, MSN, Google talk and Meebo. In addition, the talk is private, since it is only between the librarian and the student. Third, the Widget Meebo is also placed in the library home page for your convenience, so you can access it from any computer connected to the Internet.
