Thing #12

Net Library seems to be a good resource for the downloads. To be able to download a book to your own MP3 player for free is a great concept. I also like to idea of being able to find books or manuals after library hours. Especially with a "last minute student" at home.

WorldCat is another story. Working in the ILL Dept. customers are now telling us where to get the books they want. This doesn't always work out because some of the libraries that own the item are not lenders to us or the item does not circulate. We have had to deal with some of these "know it all customers" already.
