UC Blue Ash Library and the Marcotte Library at UC Clermont are partnering to pilot a new proactive chat and knowledgebase service, LibAnswers, which provides real-time support to students in places they access regularly, such as Canvas, and respective UCBA and Marcotte Library websites and research guides.

When can they use chat? Chat will be available Monday through Friday from 8 am – 5 pm.

Students can also submit their own questions which help to grow the list of FAQs and expands support for all students.
