Text a Librarian Service to Launch October 1

On October 1, 2010, Georgia State University Library will launch a new text messaging reference service. Students, faculty, and the public will now be able to send questions and comments to the library via text (SMS).

You can text or call a GSU librarian at 404.566.9591. Add our number to your phone, and you’ll be able to request assistance without a computer and without entering the building.

The Text a Librarian service will be available during the same hours as the library’s Live Assistance chat service. Daily availability of these virtual reference options can be found on the library’s calendar.

For information on all the library’s contact options, visit our Ask a Librarian page.

Standard costs for text messaging (as determined by your service plan and provider) will apply.
