The handbook shows how to adapt traditional face-to-face reference interview skills to the virtual interview - and how to interpret and use new cues (chat slang, IM shorthand, emoticons, etc.) to better serve your users. For both chat and e-mail transactions, Kovacs outlines strategies for analyzing the question, conducting the interview, developing a search strategy, and delivering sources."--BOOK JACKET.Lankes, R.
