Students & Parents Comments

  • This website really helped me answer my question. I will surely use it again.

  • My school librarian gave out bookmarks with the link to Ask Here PA on them, telling us how wonderful the site was.

    I later was invited to take a gifted/enrichment library research program, and I used the site the moment I had the chance. (I believe I was researching Teddy Roosevelt.) Wow, was it helpful.

    Later, when I wanted to know more about my favorite animal, I used Ask Here PA. I got great links for many horse sites, and good videos on grooming and tacking up.

    Now I'm writing a short story about a girl who rode on the orphan train, and I wanted some info before I got into detail on that subject. My California librarian, Abby (who happens to share a name with me), sent me three useful links that i deem as very helpful.

    Thank you, Ask Here PA.

  • I'm a middle school librarian for seventh and eighth grade students and have included "Ask Here PA" in the library curriculum.

  • The websites gave me valuable information. I didn't have to sort through a lot of unimportant details to find what I was looking for.

  • This is an amazing resource for me because I am researching this topic where there is not much about it. The librarians helped me so much in getting an A for my project.

It's just amazing! I'm in 5th grade and my teacher told me about it. I love it! I have used this site for some of my school projects. I'm pretty sure I got an A+ on all of them. I play drums and I even used this site to find free drum music! I found some not a lot but still some. It's hard to find free music for drums though. Thank you for this great site!

The best part is they aren't doing the work for you, they are simply pointing you in the right direction. It makes my life a lot easier.

Thanks for your help every librarian that I have used and/or will use!

  • I wish I knew this service existed earlier. Although I didn't get the direct, easy answer I hoped for, I got some websites to check. I would not only use this service again, but recommend it to anyone seeking information - especially my kids for school. Thank you for providing such a great information source, with such helpful people on the other end.

    I also love the 24/7 for those all nighters we high school students have.
  • It is a very helpful website. I was a little nervous at first seeing as I don't like to talk to people I don't know but I got used to it. The information was wonderful and the librarians were very polite and helpful. I love this site!
  • It is a great help. I have used it in Elem. School. Now I am in middle so it helps me now better than ever! I love this website!
  • This is an AMAZING website! It's a great place to get help! The person that invented this website is a genius! And I give credit to all of the Librarians! You guys are sooooo nice!
  • Wow! This website is so cool. I'm currently home schooled and it's nice having the feel that there's exactly a teacher (who knows almost everything) available whenever you need them. I can ask them anything!

  • It was so easy! My world history teacher told us about this but I was skeptical of using it at 8:45 Saturday night. Thankfully there was a very nice librarian here to help! He gave me more information then I could have hoped for! Thanks again!!

  • As a parent that is mathematically challenged, this service is a godsend! I was at the end of my rope and remembered that my daughter's librarian at school had mentioned this service so I thought anything was worth a try. Edythe was wonderful and very helpful! Thank you so much!!!

  • I really enjoyed how friendly and helpful the librarian was. Instead of just answering my questions, she told me other useful things, and was genuinely concerned about my topic. I'm doing a huge project on sleeping and dreaming, and some of my most useful sites are from her. For instance, I am curious about common sleep myths, like if blind people dream or if dreams have anything to do with your future or lifestyle, and she sent me a great website with several myths and answers. All in all, this site will help my project process go a whole lot smoother.

  • This is so great because the people that help are real and not just an internet page that describes stuff you really do not need. I would like to thank my New Oxford Middle School librarian, Mrs. Foreman, for teaching us this AWESOME website.

  • I heard about this service on NPR and I used it immediately to get some information for my third-grade son's report and art project pertaining to Iran. I was impressed by the quick, useful response I received which included information on Persian rugs I requested.

  • Not only did the librarian on duty answer my question live in the 10 minutes I had available, she also e-mailed me a follow up suggestion related to my question.

  • They helped a ton, and I'm gonna rock with my Project now. !THANKS

  • I thought the lady that helped me was very polite and after talking to her I figured out everything I needed to know about my project. Thanks so much. It was a lot of help and I will diffidently tell all my friends about it!

  • It's really easy to use this site. All my friends use it for projects and papers!

  • I never expected a real human!!!

  • This is a great service, like having a live search engine.
