No matter where you are, your librarians can help meet your needs. We offer a variety of ways for you to get the answers you need from a librarian.
Need an answer now? Use the box on the right to chat with a librarian. Librarians contribute to this online reference service through ASK-WA and QuestionPoint. If your question cannot be answered immediately, it will be emailed to your LWTech librarians (if you provide your email address) and answered during library hours.
Send us an email with a quick question, or a request for an appointment if you have a more involved need. You can also contact individual staff members.
Stop by the Main Desk in the Technology Center building, T215 during our open hours to ask questions and get help from staff and librarians.
We can help you find articles, books, and movies that are not already in our collections. Find more information on the Library Request Items page.
