WorldCat

WorldCat is a great resource. I searched the book Pinkilicious and was able to find that it was also done as a musical. I had no idea. This is one of my favorite books to read aloud. It is interesting to see how many langauges the book was published in. This could be helpful to us and patrons. I have one patron who uses WorldCat to search movies in Persian.

This is a great additional resource to find materials that can be acquired through ILL. It is also nice to see the distance of the libraries that hold the title. This could be very useful if the report is due tomorrow!

Also, good to see where you can purchase the book and what it will cost. I never heard of World Books, although they were the most expensive.
