After Hours Virtual Reference


The Library is closed but you're still working! Virtual Reference services are provided to assist students during hours in which NCTC Librarians are not available. Service hours may vary by semester. Flash media player (a free download) is required.

You may have to wait a few seconds for a librarian to appear online. The speech bubble will turn from red to green.
