Open World Cat


Check out this service, which individuals can use for free to find books in libraries in your town and region: http://www.worldcat.org/ This comes from OCLC, and libraries that want to download records or ADD their records must do so on a fee basis. But open access to seeing what's in near by collections is free. And you can use it, I hear, to look at catalog records from any participating libraries, if you need some data. Link to this on your webpages.

Cat is Tater, of Asheville, NC. He can't help you with your books or catalog records, but he enjoys sitting on a book now and then, when he can't find a box.
