This article explores the challenges the YRL faces as it seeks to make its collections more assessable to virtual researchers. It explains the intricacies involved in working in a remote location while simultaneously functioning within a large government structure. The article offers some solutions and workarounds to several challenges and outlines two projects the YRL has created to increase the discoverability of collections and digitize historical collections.
期刊介绍：
Public Services Quarterly covers a broad spectrum of public service issues in academic libraries, presenting practical strategies for implementing new initiatives and research-based insights into effective practices. The journal publishes research-based and theoretical articles as well as case studies that advance the understanding of public services, including reference and research assistance, information literacy instruction, access and delivery services, and other services to patrons. Articles may examine creative ways to use technology to assist students and faculty. Practice-based articles should be thoroughly grounded in the literature and should situate the work done in one library into the larger context of the situation.
