More Thing 17

17.3: ProQuest:
I made a webpage of links doing exactly what the directions stated. It went smoothly.
17.4: NetLibrary:
I made my NetLibrary account, followed the instructions, and learned how to make notes on the contents of an ebook. Smooth again.
None of the instructional videos ever played for me, but that was okay.

These tools would be helpful to patrons in doing research and keeping current with personal interests. I can see that the Search Alert and notes option on NetLibrary would be something I could mention to patrons regularly, when I tell them about any of the databases.
The web pages of links would be more for our student population, I would guess.
Any of these tools would make sharing information between colleagues simpler, and I probably would use them that way before I use them personally.
