Find That Book
by Lynette
We live in a small town. Our local library is small and half of the time, doesn’t carry what you want. The good news is, we share books among other libraries in the county so eventually you’ll find the book, you just have to wait. A few years ago, I could do to the library web site to search and reserve the book but now, I don’t even get the search anymore. Yeah like going back wards.
I was very excited to find Worldcat. Worldcat searches over 10,000 libraries world wide. Once you find the title, you enter your zip code - it also tries to guess based your IP I think - and it will pull up the nearest libraries who carry that book.
Sadly for me, the two books I was looking for is only available in libraries 50 miles away and whom I have no access to
oh well. At least now I kno w and will put the book in my to-buy list. As for Worldcat, it is going in my bookmarks.
