Preview the New GVRL Interface
"Sneak peek it now…enjoy it soon!
Get your first glance at the amazing-looking, function-filled, user-driven, cross-searchable, extreme-makeovered Gale Virtual Reference Library, coming this fall!
Based on feedback from librarians and patrons, we took the best features from GVRL, added amazing upgrades, and put it all together in a new, eye-catching package.
User Interface-lift
Your users will see a UI that looks like their favorite websites.
• Book covers grace the homepages, browsing is easier and more intuitive, and the entire interface is available in 35+ languages.
• User-focused navigation encourages researchers to stay longer, search deeper and find what they need faster.
And once they find the eReference they want, users can enjoy multi-page viewing for the "book" experience, text-to-speech technology in 19 languages, text translation into 13 languages, and plenty of Web 2.0 share tools.
See it in action before your migration
You'll receive GVRL migration information later this season, but get a sneak peek right now."

21st century librarians
Ran across this article while researching sources for an Advanced Advertising library session:
"As 21st century librarians, we must add strategic planning, financial, human resource, and marketing skills to those we traditionally associate with librarianship. Skills in developing our message and advocating for it have become embedded in the profession's consciousness as a requirement for ensuring that our voices are heard when funding is being considered. Skills in crafting fundraising proposals, identifying funding sources, and effectively reaching out to potential contributors are becoming essential parts of the new mix of knowledge required for library leaders."
