The Ask a Question Service provides reference and information assistance.

Please ask your question using the request form below. Reference email is checked throughout each day during the work week (Monday through Friday). We will respond as quickly as possible, typically within 24 hours of receipt of the question (excluding weekends and holidays). If extensive research is required, we will let you know that we are working on it and provide an approximate time frame.

For immediate assistance, please go to or call (913-588-7166) the User Services desk.

We keep an archive of questions and answers to build a FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) database. All personal information will be removed. Privacy Policy

Please give as much detail about your question as possible, including information about any sources you have checked.
