What about other students? i live in HK – can i use this. Thanks
Yes, absolutely. At the moment we are heavily promoting our services to a large number of Ontario students that have just joined CSU.
But our “Ask a Question” Information Service is available for all of our staff and students, where ever you are located in the world.
We look forward to hearing from you.
thanks
how quickley are questions answered?
Questions are answered within 24 hours, during the working week. Most of these are actually answered within hours, but we say 24 hours in case of a heavy workload. Questions submitted on a weekend are answered Monday morning. It is a fast and efficient service.
What about the Librarian already in Ontario, doesn’t she do this stuff too?
