LibChat User Guide: 24/7 Library chat (formerly QuestionPoint)

QuestionPoint is migrating to LibAnswers!

The library's 24/7 chat will now be conducted within LibChat/LibAnswers

Tickets and Queues (Follow-up)

Chats that are not fully answered or need some kind of follow-up will go to the Ticket. Tickets are grouped by Queue:

Default: The "Default" queue is for the main Chaffey College-wide chat

Library: The "Library" queue is for the library's 24/7 reference chat. These are chats marked by the Co-op librarians or by us as requiring follow-up.
