Library catalog offers new features

LAKE COUNTY – Recent changes to the Lake County Library's online catalog have made the catalog more user-friendly.


The catalog now displays icons that indicate what the format of each item is. The format icons make it easier for patrons to select the formats that they want, such as DVDs, CDs and large type books. For many items, the cover image will also display, much as it does in Amazon.com.


To view the new features, go to the library Web site www.co.lake.ca.us/Page386.aspx and click “Library Catalog.” Enter some search terms, such as a title, author or subject. When a list of results opens, the format icons and the cover images will be visible.


With a valid barcoded library card from any public library in Lake, Sonoma or Mendocino County, a patron can request items online and have them sent to any branch library in the system for pickup. There is no charge to request items from the catalog. Contact your local branch if you have questions about using the online catalog.
