Members of the Research Library
Cooperative Program (RLCP) may now use Stanford Request, a new service
which makes it possible to request materials held in the Stanford University
Libraries through Pathfinder. All
UCB faculty, graduate students and academic staff are eligible for this service.
You must be logged onto Pathfinder (using the UCB Logon capability). The
"Stanford Libraries Catalog" will be one database choice available, and when a
member finds the record for an item s/he wants in that database, s/he may click
the "Request" button, which will launch the Stanford Request service. The RLCP
member must use whatever ID number from whatever card s/he uses for other library
services. For graduate students, this will most likely be their student ID.
For faculty and Academic Staff, it will either be their Staff ID or a card issued
by the Library.

New look, same great taste!
Trust me when I tell you that the redesign of the Internet
Tutorial is even more phenomenal than the invention of Double
Stuf Oreo cookies. I know my web sites, and I know my cookies - 'nuff
said.

young enquiring minds join the UC Berkeley family of scholars? You betcha baby!
The UCB campus fondly calls this special time -- Welcome Week. (I like
to call it "Oh my god, is that what the kids are wearing these days?"
week.) But I digress ... The Library gets in on the action too, so check out the
list of Library Welcome
Week events. But no matter what you call it, the week of August 20-24,
2001 will be wild, wooly and full of fun.
- Has it really been two months since I last clued you in on the hot happenings
of your beloved Library Web? Just the usual fabulousness has been brewing 'round
here. Nothing dramatic like a dot.com meltdown, or discovery of a mascarra that
doesn't cause racoon eyes. But enough about really important stuff, let's get to
the fun part of my job ...
- Oooo honey, who says library research isn't entertaining? Check this out, Current Biography and Who's Who are now available to all UC Berkeley students, faculty and staff.
O.k., so they're not as down and dirty as the National Enquirer, or E!, but
they're accessible via the Biographies category of the Electronic
Resources menu on the Library Web home page.

- I'm sure there's something new on the Library Web this month, but for the
life of me I can't remember what it is. Maternal amnesia once again rears its
ugly head!
