Thing 12 Net Library and WorldCat

Signed up for NetLibrary. Probably already had an account, but since our email changed, I have a new account. Searching the name Glynis in Netlibrary yields 10 results. Not bad! Everything from baby names to a book called Milk It!: Collected Musings On the Alternative Music Explosion of the 90s. This is an easy to use tool. I show customers how to use it frequently.

I already use Worldcat on a daily basis. I searched for an Ocean County title. Sheriffs of Ocean County 1850-2000 by Jeff Thompson. The furthest library that owns this title is Rutgers at about 60 miles away. Pretty neat.
