According to feedback from a recent survey, people often choose not to use email help out of fear that it will take to long to get a response.  This is far from the truth!  Librarians respond to reference questions via email usually within a few hours.  Chat is even quicker; librarians will pick up chat request in an average of 60 seconds!
