Final Blog for Marvelous Maine Invitational

Well...we are finally done our Marvelous Maine Invitational, and I must say it has been an interesting journey.

To be honest, I found some to the exercises to be, at times, frustrating and mind boggling, (Cue : Business resources and Ebscohost, LOL), but I got through it with the help of co-workers, and shared a few
laughs along the way.

It was really a toss up for me whether I found the Hobbies and Crafts or the Ancestry Library to be the biggest discovery for me.  I love to do crafts, but I think I found looking up my ancestors to be the most enjoyable and enlightening.  To be able to look up and find long lost relatives was fantastic.

We have had a few patrons already who have used NoveList and the Ancestry Library, and they have been quite surprised at the amount of information available to them.  We have many patrons who will be extremely interested in the Hobbies and Crafts information available on Marvel.

We will continue to try to steer patrons onto Marvel when they have a question we cannot answer or if they are looking for materials that we do not provide. 

All in all, Marvel is a very informative site for patrons and staff.  Thank you for an interesting 10 weeks!!!
