Abstract

Cooperative reference service provides libraries with resources beyond their own collections and staff to provide answers to patrons' questions.

Examines the current state of the service in the USA and suggests factors to consider in planning cooperative reference service, including varieties of structure, staffing and funding, and the impact of technology
