Instructions
- Which system should I use?
- OCLC version is first choice for most searchers. It has the
most coverage in ONE file and allows Interlibrary Loan requests
directly from an item via the GET/DISPLAY feature. Many databases
use the OCLC interface, so you may already be familiar with it.
NOTE: 6 concurrent users allowed; please
logoff when finished.
- NAL version is probably a few weeks more current and
is available to ALL on the web.
- Frequent users may wish to explore the COS search interface,
which has many special features.
