Access My Library

This is an initiative by Thomson Gale in which they are
allowing search
engines such as Google and Yahoo to crawl their content. 
Once you find
a citation via the search engine, if you can verify that you
are a
patron of a library that subscribes to that particular
database you can
click through to the full text.

Searching the collective about AccessMyLibrary.com

I don't pay a lot of attention, but I had not heard of
this.
...husband was looking for something, found an article that
linked him
to
this with a "find your library option" for that
article (nothing around
here) or register...

Any info appreciated

Thanks

Have a good weekend...

Thanks for the reminder, Alan. It's a good effort, but it
has so far been
limited to those customers of Thomson-Gale that use
InfoTrac, I do believe.

I'd like to see them offer this more widely, if you have
*other*
Thomson-Gale databases.

And, see other vendors move in this "linkable"
direction.

Best, and TGIF,
DrWeb
