THING 17

I set up an e-mail search alert with Gale a few years ago. It was very easy to do. I just set the same alert up in Ebsco and it was also easy to do.

Creating the Proquest webpage was easy. This is a useful way to send a patron an answer to a reference question. I can see it as especially useful in e-mail reference or any type of remote reference service.

Our patrons have been using netlibrary since Minitex had their first shared collections. I find searching for specific information within the full-text of a book very useful. Being able to keep notes in a shared resource is something we can't do with a print resource.
