Libraries–Ohio
Virtual Reference
A Busy Week for Ohio Libraries
At the beginning of the week SECINC was introduced. What is it? From a GovTech.Com article, “The SCEIC [Statewide Core Electronic Information Collection] is a collaborative effort involving INFOhio, the state’s virtual library and information network for primary and secondary school libraries; the Ohio Library and Information Network (OhioLINK), the network for higher education libraries; and the Ohio Public Library and Information Network (OPLIN) under the leadership of the State Library of Ohio. Later in the week, OhioLINK, introduced a new �Chat With a Librarian� service. From the OhioLINK site, “Chat with a Librarian� is a chat service that connects you, the user, to a reference librarian. Your questions can be answered when you have them – during searching. For example, you are searching an OhioLINK provided database like ERIC, and you wonder, �How do I find the best information about multiculturalism?”
