Library Cataloging
Catalogs
The multiple library search catalog (looks like Z39.50) of the Tampa Bay Library Consortium has a nice write up in their local paper. This is a useful tool for the local populace and deserves some publicity.
I was glad to see a on-line form to apply for a library card. Shows a commitment to service. Seen on ResourceShelf.
