Summer Projects

The Graphic interface to e-reference titles is far enough into reality that I secured some server space for it and gave it a real home. You can now see the work in progress at

You will be able to navigate up to the link that actually goes to the resource. Once I've filled in all of the spaces, I'll be looking for appropriate free e-reference books on the web. Most such items will be eliminated due to ads and popups, but a few have already made the cut. Once I've added the last range I'll go through and standardize the signage a bit, but I'm fairly happy with the look and feel of this.
The project of finding Library of American Civilization titles in Google Books has already netted us hundreds of new additions. Sometime this summer we will pass that marker where more than half of the records for these microfiche titles will have links.
