Options Presented to CCLLL Members Collaborate with MCLS 24/7 Reference Program Free access to the software to contributors We choose how many hours to staff the service We decide whether we want questions filtered through the MCLS librarians and/or received directly through icons on participating websites MCLS provides training and support

Options Presented to CCLLL Members Develop our own virtual reference network Choose software and pay software fees Choose someone to lead the effort Self-finance including seeking grants Share staff resources

Options Presented to CCLLL Members Each library may develop its own virtual reference service Shared websites and materials from research Each library develops its own policies Each library adds staff Each library joins their Library of California multi-type region collaborative reference project.

Program Initiation Asked for at least 2 hours of monitoring time per week to participate On-line and in house training before begin MCLS provided technical support Set up an discussion listserv hosted by a member Before project went live, practiced among participants for several months Asked librarians from AALL chapters to ask questions

How it All Works Agreements Escort and push pages only to free websites Use list to find replacements when cant meet scheduled hours Monitor hours away from reference desk whenever possible Use Judicial Council Website as first choice to find answer

How it All Works Coordinator duties Monitors scripts and other data Facilitates between MCLS staff and Law Librarians Originates most listserv discussions Coordinates PR and links Reports to CCCLL

Advantages to Collaborating and Joining MCLS 24/7 Ref Free access to MCLS e-gain library adapted software and support No library need add staff General questions referred to MCLS MCLS provides training Can use conference software for training or discussions Can decide own policies and procedures
