Working with RJDPs This training offers an explanation of common terms, what an rjdp question is and how to compose an answer. We’ll begin with an explanation of helpful terms. Important Terms: Explanation: need-by date When submitting a question, the user specifies a date when the answer is needed on the Ask an ipl2 Librarian form rjdp “Rejected due to date passed” – Need by date is within 24 hours, so the tag “rjdp” is automatically assigned by QRC (and is visible on the subject code area of the user’s question) QRC The software that runs and stores the ipl2’s question-answering service. ipl2 Policies Policies developed by the ipl2’s Fellows (Faculty and Deans who participate in the ipl2’s consortium), to ensure a high standard of answers for ipl2 users in a format that is accessible.

Sludge questions are those which have reached their "due" date at the ipl2, those which are 5-7 days old, or (when we don t have many students or volunteers answering questions) those which need to be cleared out to make way for new questions. The ipl2 strives to answer all questions within one week, and we do our best to try and meet dates by which our users requested needing a response. While we cannot always meet these deadlines, sludge is our way of providing more efficient service. Sludge
