We Are INSPIRED
Biographical information about a particular author was being elusive. INSPIRE found the information right away. Recently a patron had a quote by the poet John Dryden he found in one of the news magazine. Suddenly being INSPIRED, we put in the line that was quoted and we had the entire poem. It was great.

Get INSPIRED!
INSPIRE had not been used much in our library by patrons or even the staff. But in a matter of 2 weeks, two different occasions presented an opportunity for the staff to Get INSPIRED! We had been looking for biographical information about an author - looked everywhere - even on the Internet. So tried INSPIRE and bam! there it was. A patron saw a partial quotation by the poet John Dryden in a story in one of the news magazines. So, INSPIRE was tried again. Using the partial quote, again Bam! we found the entire poem. It was 25 pages long, so he just sat down and read it off the screen.
We will try to Get Inspired more often in the future.
Virginia, Librarian
