Wrap Up

My favorite discoveries were NetLibrary and Gale Virtual Reference Library.  Both are tools that would help individuals who cannot come to the Library begin researching subjects from their homes if they have access to a computer.  Working with outreach services, many of my patrons are older and not very comfortable with computers, but some of them are or have families that can help them navigate the internet.  It is wonderful to have a sense of the State Library's electronic resources to share with them.  For example, I was particularly impressed with NetLibrary's books about selecting Assisted Living facilities.  Also, in an outreach role,  I am out in the community interacting with many more people than just the patrons to whom I bring books, and it is exciting to tell them about all the great things I have learned during this challenge.  Thank you for helping us keep learning!
