I'm working my way through the Library Journals that have stacked up on my desk. The Feb 15 issue with the Reference Backtalk article Bibliographic Supernova by Steve Ostrem caught my eye. (I like how I could create a persistent link through Ebsco's Academic Search Complete in GALILEO).
Mr. Ostrem shares examples of "Ranganathan's Fourth Law (i.e., save the time of the reader)" with pithy stories of how GBS tied online resources to his own library.
The linkability of Google Books Search with WorldCat with a library catalog offers the book lover a way to find something interesting and find out where it is!
