I think this is a great idea. I love the fact that librarians are keen to share good and factual information with those who seek it, where ever they are! I have read some really rubbishy answers to questions on these sorts of boards sometimes it makes you want to cry. Especially when it's clear that the person answering the question has no idea what they are talking about.
More power to you board-slamming librarians! It would be a good way to expose people to the value of libraries and librarians.
It could be very interesting if LSB customers' reference questions were answered on a board, rather than individually. The bonus would be that customers may not always need to ask a question then, if the question had already been asked and answered. It would certainly keep us on our toes to provide good quality answers. I wonder whether this would increase our profile and the number of questions asked?
