I recently said that a book was available in local libraries.

It occurs to me that some folks may not know how to search multiple
library collections at once.

This has some quirks where it doesn't find books by author but can by title,
etc.  Not sure of why these happen.  You sometimes have better luck going
to specific library web sites, but it is pretty good.

In/out/due date info is best double-checked on the individual site.

Searching for the title "High-tech heretic" finds the book at UMN, MnSCU,
CLIC, Dakota, Hennepin, Minneapolis, Ramsey, Washington, and Saint Paul.
There's a header that has a bunch of library systems, after the author that
also lists Anoka and Scott and Carver, but that might be a list of what was
searched, don't know.

Go to www.mnlink.org

Click on search

Click on login as guest

Click on the metro area on the map.

Clear any checks for library systems that you can't, won't, or don't use.
Consider where you might use interlibrary loans.

Do your search.
