]]> Comment on Requesting CLIC books over Spring Break? Don’t use the Bag function! by clborchardt http://blogs.stthomas.edu/libraries/2013/03/22/requesting-clic-books-over-spring-break-dont-use-the-bag-function/comment-page-1/#comment-10123 clborchardt Thu, 28 Mar 2013 14:32:43 +0000 http://blogs.stthomas.edu/libraries/?p=5757#comment-10123 Requesting lists of books via the Book Bag function has been disabled. Exporting citations via the Book Bag still functions in the same way.

Please let circulation staff know if you used the Book Bag function to place many requests at once. We are working with vendor technical support to get it working again.

Thank you for your patience!

And not sure which to use
I, being one searcher, not a multitasker
Looked at the library’s page
To where it offered me books

And journals and guides through the woods
Of electronic content
Then looked at the other, blank, white, google
And saved that one for another day
And followed the path to the libraries’ riches

We may hold this type of event again and if you are able to come, please do – and don’t worry if you don’t have books you are ready to part with – you are welcome to attend and please feel free to help yourself to some that might look inviting!

I am not comfortable parting ways with a book that I have probably read so many times before. However, it would also be a great opportunity to get to read a book that I probably missed out on.

]]> Comment on Thesaurus Linguae Graecae Available only in Ireland Library by Michael Hollerich http://blogs.stthomas.edu/libraries/2012/12/13/thesaurus-linguae-graecae-available-only-in-ireland-library/comment-page-1/#comment-9769 Michael Hollerich Sat, 05 Jan 2013 15:44:49 +0000 http://blogs.stthomas.edu/libraries/?p=5290#comment-9769 This is disappointing news. TLG is a uniquely valuable resource for all of us who do research on early Christian materials. I have several large projects in the near future, and, despite our ourstanding collection of printed critical editions of early Christian literature, not everything I will need is in Ireland. I have a carrel in Ireland and will be spending a good deal of time there over the course of the next three and a half years. It’s disappointing to know that I can’t get TLG from my netbook computer in my carrel.
