New NLS catalogue coming soon

The National Library of Scotland (www.nls.uk) will soon be launching a new look online catalogue with new features, including links to Google Books. From the site, a description of what to expect:
  • You can save searches so you will be able to re-run them again when you want
  • Items you are interested in can be saved to lists
  • Many of the items you find will have an image of the book cover
  • Some of the items will have links to Google Books, which offers more information about books such as summaries and reviews.
  • It will be easier to refine your search on language, year and collection
  • It will be more obvious how to request, print or email details of an item.
