Where will I find chat?

Chat widgets are available on the IRC website and selected Library Guides.
 

Wait. What widget?

Ask the IRC chat widgets, or boxes, are embedded; only the gray tab is immediately visible. When you arrived on this page, the chat widget automatically slides open if IRC staff is online. Choose to chat, or say no thanks and close the tab.
