What's New

9 July 1998

• New site structure
• Revised list of discussion lists
• Does your library offer reference enquiry services?

New site structure

You may notice that we have rearranged the resource pages of the Australian Libraries Gateway site. We've included more resources for library staff on the For Libraries page. We've replaced 'Find an Item' with Pathways to Information which, when complete, should guide users to the specific information they are looking for - whether this be in a library, on a database, or on the Internet. Have a look at the new pages and please pass on any suggestions or comments.

Revised list of discussion lists

Do you belong to any library-related discussion lists? Are you aware of what lists exist? Find out on the Discussion lists page. We've just finished revising this list so most of the information on it should be up-to-date. Please let's know if we've missed any lists or if there is any incorrect information on the page.

Does your library offer reference enquiry services?

The Australian Libraries Gateway team have begun receiving many reference enquiries, suggesting that users are not sure where to start looking for information. Thus we've put together a page of links to reference enquiry services offered by libraries throughout Australia. If your library offers such a service but is not yet on the list, please let us know the details and we will include you. We think this will be a useful service, because we've found that trying to track down details of these services on library websites is often a very difficult task.
