The Alaska Virtual Reference Pilot Project is a grant-funded initiative that connects communities with member libraries across the state, including the Alaska State Library, Anchorage Municipal Libraries, Fairbanks North Star Borough Library, and Juneau Public Library. This project allows patrons to access virtual reference services, available during specific hours, by entering chat sessions through the Ask-a-Librarian logo on supported platforms. It aims to enhance library access and provide timely assistance to patrons through virtual means.
