Just because you're in library school, doesn't mean you can't ask other librarians for help (in fact, it's probably even more reason to). Online reference help is available from #AskAway

[UBC Library @ubclibrary]

Looking for online reference help for your paper or thesis? Don’t know where to start with your research? Use the Library’s #AskAway service, available until December 6. https://t.co/KzK1AikYD9
