[Web4lib] Re: Libarians and libaries

[JB Bryant]

Instead of going to www.msu.edu and searching for "library," go to
http://www.lib.msu.edu/ and search for the word "libary." 32 hits.

This is not to pick on Michigan -- I just did it there because Richard
had pointed us there. I'm guessing it can be found most places.

Go to www.msu.edu.

In the search box, type:

      libary

Observe the hit list.

Tell me I was wrong for inserting that term as a Best Bet.

For extra credit, go to Google and search for:

       libary site:edu

Observe all the Universities that Ought to Use Spell Checkers.  For
instance, carefully inspect this site's <title> tag:

       http://ucblibraries.colorado.edu/business/
