An Even More Exciting Library Catalog (And They Said It Couldn't Be Done)

You probably didn't think it was possible for the University Libraries' online catalog to get any more exciting than it already was. Those call numbers! Those subject headings! Those tables of contents and jacket summaries! Whew -- hang on a moment while we compose ourselves...

Anyway, just when you thought it couldn't get any better, we've taken things to a whole new level. Now, when you look up your favorite author in the catalog you'll notice that the resulting list of books includes images of the book jackets, as well as a button for each entry that says "More." Click on that button and you'll get a new window leading you to reviews, summaries and even to Amazon's page for that book (containing even more reviews and other information about the book).

You'll also see the "More" button in the display when you look up a specific book in the catalog -- just look up towards the top of the screen. Give it a try at http://innopac.library.unr.edu/.
