So many ways to get homework help! October 30, 2007

By now you may know that the library offers homework help in many forms (research guides, answering questions in person, by phone, by email and by IM). But did you know…

You can also text us through IM by sending a message to 265010. (This might result in the charge for a standard text from your wireless service provider, depending on your plan.) In the body of the text, first put eplref: then type your question!

Now you have no excuse not to ask for help when you’re stuck!
