      <div dir="ltr">Hi Nono,
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>Thanks for starting the sharing of the toolkits.  Here's
          the direct link to the AskUsNow! toolkits: <a
            href="http://askusnow.info/staff/marketing/students/toolkits"
            moz-do-not-send="true">http://askusnow.info/staff/marketing/students/toolkits</a>.
           </div>
        <div> </div>
        <div>At this time, the schools simply link to the service
          through their school, library, or <a
            href="http://www.askusnow.info" moz-do-not-send="true">www.askusnow.info</a>
          website.  During a school year, we find out how students
          access AskUsNow! as a part of their teacher's lesson plans and
          enrichment activities.  Some schools prefer to promote the
          service for after school hours.  This news may come from the
          schools themselves, or their AskUsNow! points of contact. 
          When a school gives feedback about AskUsNow!, it is one of the
          highlights of the day because the schools probably feel better
          staying anonymous.</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>The partnership is free thanks to the IMLS LSTA Grant, but
          would require the school librarian(s) to provide chat and/or
          do follow-up by email, to go along with other commitments
          related to marketing, meetings, and the quality of the
          service.  </div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>I have to give some of the AskUsNow! partners credit for
          building partnerships with their local school systems or
          academic departments to better promote reference services like
          AskUsNow!.  At the statewide level, I work with my immediate
          supervisor to make AskUsNow! as visible as possible to
          schools.  It's a tremendous, collaborative effort that
          continues to be a project in development.</div>

                      such a help and inspiration to me when I first
                      started.  My idea was to provide the word document
                      to our public libraries so they could customize it
                      themselves.  I really wanted to encourage
                      libraries and schools to partner up and the first
                      few years worked hard on that- conference
                      presentations, traveled and visited schools etc.
                      But I never got much traction on that
                      unfortunately.  Paul in MD do your schools
                      actually participate in chat or do they just link
                      to your service.  I believe in MD the service is
                      still “free” which would make it much easier to
                      get participation.
