Get a reliable answer from a professional librarian—anytime, day or night—right here!

The 24-hour-a-day, 7-days-a-week AskAway Virtual Reference Service is staffed by a group of hundreds of librarians across the country who work together to provide this service. Local Illinois librarians contribute time to the consortium and local residents benefit from the expanded service.

You can now receive assistance from reference librarians anytime of the day or night.
Anyone who needs help finding information may submit questions through the link on the library’s web site. Just look for the AskAway button on the Reference Department or Internet Resources Page. Questions are answered by staff at Bellwood Public Library or by any librarian participating in our worldwide network of reference librarians.
Go ahead. AskAway!
