Hi there, Could you refresh my memory as to why you were supposed to visit the library? I was going to suggest that perhaps when it's warmer the three of us could possibly venture there, but then I remembered that we're not supposed to talk much in libraries and that would be a bit hard on us, don't you think?

She wanted me to pass it on to everyone who was at the meeting. Her last question was asking me if I ever visited the Mid Manhattan Library--not yet! Best, Ellen Hi, Ellen. I just transcribed the tape from the InfoShare session I attended. It was a very useful meeting. I learned a great deal. I realize I was supposed to send you and the participants the web address for the NYPL online catalogue where you can look for books, put a hold on books and renew books. To put a hold or renew, you need to log on with the number on the back of the NYPL library card and a password, which is usually the last 4 numbers of your phone number. I don't know if most folks at the meeting have a NYPL card, but even if they don't they might want to check out the accessibility of the catalogue. Here's the web address: http://leopac.nypl.org/#focus Here's also the webpage of the NYPL that lists assistive technology and what branches have it: http://www.nypl.org/branch/services/assisttech.html If you or anyone in the group go to these web addresses, I'd appreciate hearing about how accessible they are. Did you ever go to the Mid Manhattan Library? You mentioned that you had a meeting coming up. Wonder if you got a chance to check out JAWS or any other software. Thanks to all who participated and provided me with a great deal of information!
