A New Look for the Catalog

We've been working lately on making searching the catalog more user-friendly. You'll note some new tabs, more options, and changes to the look of the search screens and search result displays. Hopefully you'll find the new look to the catalog easier to get around and more useful for finding what you're looking for. We'd love to hear your comments on the changes, as well as any suggestions for future changes. Also, check back here later for some "How to..." information on making the best use of the catalog.

Newsletter Debut

Kent County Public Library is continually growing and changing to serve the needs of our community and we want to have a way to let you, our patrons know about these changes. Whether it's a new service, new books, new movies, upcoming events, or how to make better use of what we offer, we want to keep you informed. It's for this reason that we are introducing an electronic newsletter. Current information and older information from the newsletter archives can be viewed from our Web site. Alternatively, if you use an RSS or XML feedreader like Bloglines.com, Alesti.org, or the features built into Firefox, or some other feedreader, you can subscribe to our newsletter to read it that way. Click on "What is this?" under "Subscribe to this Blog's Feed" in the right-hand column for more information about subscribing through RSS. We're also working on setting the newsletter up so that you can have new information delivered to your email inbox. We'll post information on the Newsletter when this option is available. Meanwhile, there's always the link from our Web site. We hope you like this newsletter and take advantage of it to keep up to date on what's happening at your local public library. Feel free to comment and let us know what you think.
