Hi Paul, Sandy and all,

Thanks so much for the spreadsheet!   It is interesting to see.

I’d like to clarify that Delaware continues to have a collaborative virtual reference program (Ask a Librarian Delaware) that consists of email, SMS texts and is also integrated through social media (we’ve started with Facebook messenger).  We dropped chat in June but strongly continue with the other aspects of the VR service.  (I’m not sure if your research is limited to chat.)

Sincerely,
Cathay

Hi Sandy,

Attached is a spreadsheet that still needs to be updated, but may be helpful as a start.

Best,

Paul

Good afternoon

I am hoping that everyone can help with my research.  I am looking for state-wide or multi-state wide virtual reference collaborations that have closed (collapsed) in the United States and Canada.  I know that there have been posts to this listserv in the past with collapsed vr collaborations.
Please email me what you can remember.

I know of
KnowItKnow24X7 Ohio
AskDelaware no longer offers chat only email, text, phone
AskColorado is now part of a Texas Amigos

Thank you,
