Questia is the first online library that provides 24/7 access to the world's largest online collection of books and journal articles in the humanities and social sciences, plus magazine and newspaper articles. You can search each and every word of all of the books and journal articles in the collection. You can read every title cover to cover. This rich, scholarly content -- selected by professional collection development librarians -- is not available elsewhere on the Internet. Undergraduate, high school, graduate students, and Internet users of all ages have found Questia to be an invaluable online resource. Anyone doing research or just interested in topics that touch on the humanities and social sciences will find titles of interest in Questia. To complement the library, Questia offers a range of search, note-taking, and writing tools. These tools help students locate the most relevant information on their topics quickly, quote and cite correctly, and create properly formatted footnotes and bibliographies automatically. Questia provides a comprehensive research environment to meet students' academic needs. This has been added to Research Resources Subject Tracer™ Information Blog and Student Research Subject Tracer™ Information Blog. This will be added to Academic Resources 2004-05 Internet MiniGuide.

CNET News.com Extra Feedback

"Questions or comments regarding CNET News.com Extra? Please use this form to contact us." [CNET News.com]

Not only did CNET listen to users and restore the summaries to its RSS feed, but today the above message appears amongst their posts in my aggregator. This is the first time I've seen this type of post, and it actually makes a lot of sense because as a user, I appreciated the unobtrusive pointer (as opposed to an ad). After all, RSS bigots like myself visit the full web site far less often. Even in CNET's case, I tend to view single pages, so I don't necessarily see these types of help mechanisms.

I think this is something libraries need to do more often, especially those that provide online VR/chat services. A single post on the blog - which then appears in the RSS feed - that points to the "ask a librarian" service, the readers' advisory pages (especially if the intent of the post is to highlight a new title by a popular author) , authentication pages for remote access to databases, or even just a reminder of the library's phone number would help patrons find library services.

Remember that blogs are a great way to disseminate information and market your services!

AODL serves scholars and students conducting research and teaching about West and South Africa as well as teachers and students of African languages in both the United States and Africa.

I would love to get a grant to have 37signals design an online library catalog. I've been reading their book Defensive Design for the Web: How To Improve Error Messages, Help, Forms, and Other Crisis Points because I'm redesigning our merged web site/extranet/intranet, and while most of the suggestions in the book are fairly intuitive, most of us don't take the time to add in all the little niceties and user-supportive framework. It's a very quick read and an easy ILL for library webmasters.

It looks like I'll be using ColdFusion on a Windows server for the new MLS site, so if anyone has suggestions for CF-based aggregators, RSS-generators, bulletin boards, blogging software, and kitchen-sink functionality, I'd love to hear them.
