Another small bite as I work on larger blog posts (One's almost done and will be up soon!).
To be honest, I'm not sure how I ultimately feel about what this writer' saying here. While we should be supporting cross-platform experiences and finding creative ways to reach users where they are on the one hand, I'm not sure giving out my cell phone number to be on call 24-7 would be all that effective. I'm generally not coherent at 2 am. There are work-life implications for any librarian doing this, which would ultimately feed into their overall effectiveness as well.
Maybe more places with night owl librarian chat/phone services? With actual night owl librarians?
...or is there a larger point I'm missing here?
