This report profiles the efforts of 15 academic, special, and public libraries to develop digital 
reference services.  The aim of the study is to enable other libraries to benefit from their 
experience in deciding whether, and how, to develop a digital-reference service, how much time, 
money and other resources to spend on it, how to plan it, institute it and evaluate it. Let 
librarians in their own words – tell you about their experiences with digital reference.
Among the libraries and other organizations profiled are: Pennsylvania State University, 
Syracuse University’s Virtual Reference Desk, the Massachusetts Institute of  Technology, 
PalomarCollege, The Library of Congress, the University of Florida, PA Librarian Live, the 
Douglas County Public Library, the Cleveland Public Library, Denver Public Library, OCLC, 
the New England Law Library Consortium, the Internet Public Library, Paradise Valley 
Community College, Yale University Law School, Oklahoma State University, Tutor.Com and 
Baruch College.
