But the lack of a 'home' button or other way to clear your search is both puzzling and potentially embarrassing for people using a public computer. I like it.

It is a little confusing when searching only for articles, but maybe that is because I am looking for the "old" way. Diane Love it!

This seems to be the year of the mobile device...Iphone, Blackberry, etc. Even recipes are sent this way now. Text reference would be easier if we could share the service with other libraries. How about circ notices to your mobile device? Possibiities are endless. Diane Amazing! This seems to be the year of the mobile device…Iphone, Blackberry, etc.

It's allows the patron to save face and not feel like he has been reprimanded. The program itself was quite good, although our patrons are not as tough as some that the presenter has encountered; too bad Tommy Nye couldn't have sat in. I would have been curious about his reaction to it.

We had another TV so the one in the staff room is still there for your watching pleasure. But this afternoon at break, don't watch TV, come upstairs and play a game of tennis or bowling. Today you might want to walk instead, but I will be looking for you!!! Susan The wii is now set up on the third floor.
