Tracking Your Reading History

Want to be able to look back on what you've read in the past? You can choose to track your library reading history by maintaining a confidential online reading list accessible only by you.

If you are like me, and can't remember that really awesome author you read last year...this would be a great help.

If this sounds like a service you might be interested in, go to http://catalog.lioninc.org/search
Then go to My Account and login. You can then go to the My Reading History choose to Opt In.

If you decide you no longer want to participate in this service you have the option to go into your account and Opt Out.

Happy Reading (and remembering what you read, too!)

Decorating the Library for the Season

Come by the library and see the holiday decorations...the library is looking very festive. We have put up a winter village, christmas trees, window displays, bright lights and a menorrah.

Downtown Norwich is having a Holiday Window challenge, and this year the Otis Library hopes to win!!!

Wish us luck!

New Automotive Repair Database Available at Otis Library

We are happy to announce that Otis Library has purchased the Automotive Repair Resource Center (ARRC) database.

During these tough economic times some people might be more apt to try some car repairs, and we have a great resource that you can use from the comfort of your home! The database offers wiring diagrams, recalls, repair schedules and much, much more!

I have noticed there have been quite a few requests at the reference desk for the Chilton's or the Haynes manuals (which we still have). Hopefully, this new database, which is fully accessible from home will help DIY-minded people to diagnose and repair whatever ails their cars.

You will need your Otis Library card to login when you are at home. It will ask for the 14-digit barcode on the back of the card.

As always, if you have any questions on any of the services we offer, feel free to call us at the library @ 889-2365 x 109 or email us ref@otis.lioninc.org.
