Furthermore, the Harvard Library has 30 OCLC symbols in use; I asked in the 11am webinar if individual libraries would be able to view the others' LBD. The response was that we would only be able to view the symbol associated with the login. Speaking personally, I can't imagine that the LBD would ever be more useful than Harvard's shared local catalog (or even the notes on our old catalog cards, for that matter). </pre>

Ah interesting. Then I heard that wrong. I apologize for making that
claim then.<br>
As that is the case then searching in HOLLIS will give you a far
better idea than LBDs!!<br>

I also found the statement that no end of life date has been determined for Connexion quite ominous. More generally speaking, I found the responses were often very vague and didn't necessarily answer the question being asked in a meaningful way.</pre>

Very much agreed, Honor. The answers were very vague that way and
most unsatisfying.<br>
