[Web4lib] RE: Access My Library

[Alan Stewart]

This is an initiative by Thomson Gale in which they are allowing search
engines such as Google and Yahoo to crawl their content.  Once you find
a citation via the search engine, if you can verify that you are a
patron of a library that subscribes to that particular database you can
click through to the full text.

Searching the collective about AccessMyLibrary.com

I don't pay a lot of attention, but I had not heard of this.
...husband was looking for something, found an article that linked him
to
this with a "find your library option" for that article (nothing around
here) or register...

Any info appreciated

Thanks
