About Reference
Stop by, call or "chat" with our team of reference librarians if you need information or referral services, readers' advisory, computer, printer or digital technology assistance. If we don't have the item you're looking for, we'll borrow it from a neighboring library. Get access to eBooks, online learning and free entertainment, and for more extensive help, make an appointment with our digital services librarian.
