Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to outline the development of a Skype-based, study abroad reference service. Design/methodology/approach - The paper discusses the criteria used for technology and situates the project in the literature on study abroad reference services. Findings - Using Skype, a free video-conferencing software, allows librarians to offer reference services to study abroad students effectively, easily, and without new technologies or significant cost. Originality/value - The paper offers other librarians strategies for developing and launching similar programs and shares challenges encountered to prepare librarians for success in their own projects.
