For libraries

Ask a question

If you have already done some work on a reference question for a patron and wish to pass it on to L-net, just fill out our e-mail question form and let us know you work at the library.

Advisory Board

L-net's Advisory Board is made up of librarians and managers from our partner libraries, representing our geographic diversity and different types of libraries.

Become a partner

Every librarian in Oregon is welcome to join L-net as a partner library, whether to answer live chat questions, e-mail questions, or just to make sure your patrons get the same great help online that they are used to getting at your library.

Embed L-net in your library website

See our instructions for embedding L-net on your library website to do add a dynamic widget to your library website. Put L-net wherever patrons might need help - in the catalog, on the home page, on every page.

Librarians are online 24/7, but may not be able to help with your account. Get help with research, finding a book or article or verifying a citation.

Help promote L-net

You can help promote L-net in a number of ways, including distributing press releases to your local media and brochures to schools and teachers, and by linking on your website.

Oregon libraries can use our software to provide a local online chat service at your library, for free.
