Re: Scoping

[Bills Linda <lbills@xxxxxxxxxx>]

We have format scopes for sound recordings, electronic
materials, serials, videos. They are very popular.  We also have scopes
for our special collections which are a great aid to the staff in their
collection evaluation and work with their clients.

And for an added thrill, the scopes allow us to put dynamic links on our
webpages so students can click on the link and get a browse screen of all
the electonic art history courses, or all the scores by a particular
composer, for instance:
