To use the chat feature of Ask a Librarian:
• Verify that Ask a Librarian is “Online.”

If Ask a Librarian is “Offline,” you will be given the option to contact the reference staff via e-mail at LawLibraryHelp@rwu.edu.
You may also contact a librarian by telephone at (401) 254-4547.
For complex questions, students are encouraged to meet with a reference librarian in person to learn what library services and resources are available to them.
