The Instructional Resource Center offers Instant Message (IM) services with Ask the IRC and Meebo.
Ask the IRC is intended primarily for students, faculty and staff at Ashland University. If you are not affiliated with Ashland University, we will reply to your inquiry only as it relates to general questions about the university, library, or IRC.
IRC Chat Hours
Monday - Friday:
8:00 am to 5:00 pm
* Navigating away from this page or closing your browser will effectively end your current chat/IM session.
Have a question and Ask the IRC is off line? Feel free to leave a message with contact information so you question may be answered in a timely manner. We recommend using the library chat service Ask Us! when Ask the IRC is off line.
Students enrolled in EDCI 131/504 Instructional Technology Lab should use the chat services within Angel course management software for questions. Ask the IRC is not affiliated with EDCI 131/504.
