CNET.com - News - Entertainment & Media - New network links libraries online
In fact, the very first question sent through the network came from a British library and was fielded by O'Neill in Santa Monica mainly because her library happened to be open at the time. The question asked for the most recent books published in English about ancient Byzantine cuisine.
"I looked at that question and thought, 'Oh boy, I can't believe they sent it to our little library,"' O'Neill said. She found the answer by using a library database and searching journals and book catalogs.
"It wasn't a complete answer, but it was a really good answer," she said.
Now, with many more libraries in the group, a university with a good book collection on the Byzantine empire is more likely to get that question. But O'Neill was proud that she could handle it.
"It's a really good example of the (CDRS) possibility, but I hope it doesn't happen again," she said. "That was scary."
