This document describes the development and testing of CrowdAsk, a crowdsourced library help system created by researchers at Purdue University Libraries. It received funding from an IMLS grant and allows users to ask questions that can be answered by other students, faculty experts, or librarians. The system was beta tested by undergraduate students in classes and specialists in the special collections department. Analysis found that students asked a variety of questions and engagement was high based on website usage statistics. While badges and points were not strong motivators, expert users were motivated by reciprocity. The system is now launched on the Purdue Libraries website.
