WorldCat Local has more content than our current catalog &#8211; it includes books owned by other libraries as well as a limited number of articles &#8211; and several features that we think make it easier to use.  Some of the features include an easier to read display, a less confusing way to find a book&#8217;s call number, and suggestions of ways you can refine a search.  In addition, there are opportunities for you to add tags and share your own reviews of books if you create a free WorldCat account.<\/p>\n<p>We are planning to direct most of the links on our website that point people to the &#8216;Library Catalog&#8221; to the new WorldCat local page.
