In fact, being able to view what's in the online library is already part of the plan. We used to have that feature but had to discontinue it during the development of the new online library presentation, i.e., category based vs. issue based. Being able to see the contents is all part of the plan. One way of doing such is via the Lib Cat disk I'll be sending out. It will be a whole lot easier and far more productive for new users than having to wade through 100K of online info--passing too quickly to be of any good. Folks need to live with something for awhile before they start to appreciate it; like the Model 100/102/200 computers. Besides, not only will the disk be a rich reference source, it will also--by example--show our committment to serving the needs or our members, and being sensitive to their concerns. I feel it will have a major impact on our club. -Rick-
