ORDER THE 21ST EDITION, THE LAST PRINT DIRECTORY, NOW

The results from the internet connectivity survey have been tabulated. We had 178 responses to the survey, 162 respondents had internet access and 16 did not have internet access. Of this total 93 indicated they prefer using a print directory while 81 preferred the online directory.

After careful consideration of the results, a print directory will be published in September 2004, but it will be the LAST print directory published by the I&R Network. What this ultimately means is if you do not have internet access you have 14 months in which to resolve this issue. Beginning in June 2005 there will only be the online directory.

The I&R Office is now accepting orders for the 21st Directory. The Directory will be shipped to you as soon as it is in print. You can fill out the subscription form on page 15 of this newsletter and return it to the I&R office

Need training on how to use the online directory for your staff? Call Joe or Lori at (559) 488-3857 to arrange training sessions. The Network will also be offering training at the Central Library computer lab; watch the Network News for announcements in the coming weeks.
