New York Public Library consists of 87 libraries. 3 rd largest public library in USA (behind the Library of Congress & Boston Public Library) The new system is “scalable” A large library like NYPL with 87 branches can use it as well as a single library, much smaller than FML. This is one of the great features of the software.

Google is the most powerful website on the Internet. Yet, it looks like a basic page any kid could create.
Simple yet elegant interface like Google.
In the old days it took hours to sort through titles, authors, subjects, If you had a name or a subject wrong, we may not be able to find it. Example: If you were looking for “cookbooks” you’d have to know the official subject term is “cookery.” Go to the bakery to do some cookery
Jodi Picoult – My Sister’s Keeper The brain uses association…keywords. Encore mimics the brain
Kid looking to kill birds with a BB gun or a slingshot That’s checked out – how about: how to kill a woodpecker?
If you’re only using keywords, you need to be able to drill down to your results. General keyword – angels and demons dvd – drill down
Remember “cookery” “ Joy of Cooking” Tags will be monitored.
Traditional Jewish collection, African-American collection, etc. “ Basic cooking” cookbook, cooking
If you’re in the Library, take it off the shelf and check it out. If you’re home, you can request it.
Go to the “Classic Catalog” log-in Go to “My Library” “ Suggest a Title for Purchase” “how to kill a woodpecker”
