Digital Reference Question Logs

I've just compiled a Web page that lists digital reference question logs
available on the Web.

By "question logs" I mean a collection of actual questions that have been
asked at digital/virtual reference sites. I am talking about digital
reference regardless of medium used (e.g., e-mail, Web form, chat reference,
etc.).

Question logs may prove useful to students and researchers interested in the
types of questions asked in the digital/virtual reference service
environment, and also may prove useful in the training process, giving
practitioners an idea of what they might expect to see while participating
in such a reference service.

The URL for this page is:

If you are aware of other question logs on the Web, please e-mail me.

Thanks!
