GALILEO Goes to COMO!
by Tim Brown, GALILEO Marketing Specialist

The Council of Media Organizations (COMO) conference took place at the Jekyll Island Convention Center October 31-November 2, and GALILEO contributed to the conference in many ways. The GALILEO booth, immediately identified by a tower of GALILEO balloons, was a busy area in the vendor hall, where librarians from every section of the state were able to meet the GALILEO staff and to obtain current information about GALILEO. Booth volunteers Susan Curtis, Dusty Gres, and Marcy Nader assisted the GALILEO staff in their efforts to greet booth visitors and to distribute information.
A COMO highlight was the appearance of Galileo Galilei himself at the grand opening of the vendor exhibition hall on

October 31. In celebration of Halloween, GALILEOs own Philip McArdle dressed in Renaissance costume, greeting booth visitors in the guise of our librarys namesake. Galileos appearance delighted COMO attendees and vendors alike, lending a festive air to the evenings proceedings.
Several GALILEO-related presentations were offered during COMO. Detailing such topics as Spanish-language Resources, The Digital Library of Georgia, The Database of Online Resources and The Universal Catalog, the GALILEO sessions were consistently well attended. In addition, GALILEO database demonstrations were conducted at the GALILEO booth; GALILEO staff members Philip McArdle and Rand Raynor

demonstrated n e t L i b r a r y, AncestryPlus, and Informe!, and Susan Tuggle from the University of Georgia demonstrated the Georgia Government Records database.
One of COMOs most significant moments occurred on the final night of the conference, during the Georgia Library Associations annual awards ceremony Galileo explores COMO on Halloween. and banquet.

EBSCO and ProQuest Continued for FY2003

by Karen Minton, Virtual Library Development Specialist

Budget reductions have been felt in all sectors in our present economic climate, but even before budget cuts were announced, GALILEO was faced with choosing between ProQuest and EBSCOhost databases. GALILEO has

generally received flat funding over the last years, but both ProQuest and EBSCO have continued to provide additional content, which requires more money. Groups within GALILEO have compared databases from the two vendors, assessing the

scope, content, usability, and other evaluation criteria to help the GALILEO Steering Committee decide between ProQuest and EBSCOhost databases.
Budget reductions, coming as a result of the economic downturn, declining revenues, and a decline in the value of endowments at private colleges and universities, had underscored the need to choose between these two popular suites of databases or a combination of the database offerings. The University Systems GALILEO budget will be reduced 2.5 percent this year and 5 percent next year. ProQuest and EBSCOhost databases were targeted

because such a large portion of our funding goes toward buying these databases and because there is some overlap of journal titles.
Jayne Williams, Assistant Vice Chancellor for Library Services for the University System of Georgia, stated that choosing between these popular databases was not something the GALILEO Steering Committee wanted to do but was, rather, a necessity. We want to be good stewards with the GALILEO communities money, she said. (continued, page 6)

Exposing Georgias History through the

Digital Library of Georgia

by Lauren Fancher, Director of GALILEO Support Services

Peter Gordons diary is on the web for anyone to read, and the Digital Library of Georgia is responsible.
Gordon was Chief Bailiff of Savannah, Georgia in the 1820s, and Stephen Miller, the Director of the Digital Library of Georgia, believes that presenting images on the Web of documents such as Gordons original journal pages with the words transcribed and searchable brings history into the hands of not only all Georgians, but the world. Whether average citizens, civil war buffs, genealogists, K12 students, Georgia legislators, or international researchers, we are on a mission to make materials unique to Georgia and Georgia history available to all, says Miller, who believes that these materials will enrich the lives and learning of all Georgia citizens. For example, in his journal, Peter Gordon chronicled the early settlement

(DLG) offices at the University of Georgia Libraries, Miller provided a tour of their operation, explaining that The Digital Library of Georgia is being built as a digital repository of primary source material of importance to the history and culture of Georgia, including letters, official documents, diaries, first-hand accounts, maps, photographs, books, and newspapers. Many of these documents have been carefully preserved in the University of Georgia Libraries Hargrett Rare Book and Manuscript Library. Moving past staff members sitting at computer terminals transcribing the digitized images of letters that were written before their grandparents were born, Miller described the relationship of the Digital Library of Georgia with GALILEO. The Digital Library of Georgia is a GALILEO initiative based at the University of Georgia Libraries. GALILEO

A Chat with Dr. Lamar Veatch,

Georgias New State Library Director

by Tim Brown, GALILEO Marketing Specialist

On October 16, Dr. J. Lamar Veatch, Jr. assumed his post as Georgias new State Library Director and Assistant Vice Chancellor of Library Development and Services for the University System of Georgia. A native of Louisville, Georgia, Dr. Veatch has returned to Georgia after serving as Alabamas State Library Director, where he was a leader in developing an online virtual library similar to GALILEO. He has also served as a director of public libraries in Texas and Colorado, as well as in Vidalia and Louisville, Georgia.
Dr. Veatch heads Georgias Public Library Service (GPLS), which administers state and federal

funding for Georgias fifty-eight public library systems. Dr. Veatch is enthusiastic in his vision for GPLS and Georgias public libraries. We are in a wonderful position to contribute to a more educated Georgia through traditional and non-traditional library services to the public. The library is a public institution available everywhere in the state; there are 317 public library facilities that provide an opportunity for lifelong learning. Everyone has access to the library, which makes GPLS unique as an educational public service; it is also unique in the partnership that exists on both state and local levels. I want to see GPLS be the best it can be as a service to the public.

GALILEO is integral to Dr. Veatchs vision for GPLS. It is important that we actively promote the use of technologies such as GALILEO as resources available to everyone through the public libraries; we will ensure that the public understands that GALILEO is a service for all of Georgias citizens.
While discussing the priorities for Georgias libraries during the next few years, Dr. Veatch emphasized the importance of emerging technologies. Our main priority will be to utilize effectively the technological advances that have happened so suddenly in the recent past. We want to refine the services that are currently available and to take advantage of new technologies

as they come along, such as distance learning. We must also build upon and upgrade our current infrastructure building new facilities and finding ways to replace outdated equipment.
An overarching priority for GPLS will be to tell the library story to the citizens of Georgia. We want to make people aware of how important the public libraries are to the state, and to publicize the services available through the library. The mission of GPLS is to assist local public libraries in providing better library services. Anything we can do to promote and assist in providing library services is what we are about; we are a service organization for the citizens of Georgia.

the new State Librarian, Dr. Lamar Veatch, and hear a bit about his plans for the future. We are now beginning to plan a joint meeting for March 28-29. I look forward to a closer partnership between the various constituencies of GALILEO as we work to enhance this great resource.
This will also be a year in which to make some important decisions about which databases we can afford to continue, especially if budget cuts are very deep. The Collection Development Committee under the leadership of Bill Potter has done an excellent job of comparing the relative strengths of the databases, with much help from Joan Conger of UGA, and we have the information needed to make informed

choices. We will also be looking at changes in the way we access GALILEO, thanks to the improvements Brad Baxter and the Development Team have developed that give us more flexibility and options (DOOR). On a more basic level, we will get used to a new URL. And by the time you read this we should have the new GOLD database available.
Ive always believed that the decisions citizens make can only be as good as the information they have to make those decisions. That seems especially important now. The citizens of Georgia are fortunate to have GALILEO, and we will work hard to make sure its giving them what they need.

The Alternative Press Index (API)
by Judy Kelly, Director of Virtual Library Development

If your library users are looking for viewpoints not normally represented by CNN, AOL-TimeWarner, The New York Times, or their hometown papers, The Alternative Press Index (API) may be the tool you need. It can help track down answers to questions such as: What does the radical feminist publication Off Our Backs say about women in Afghanistan? How is welfare reform being covered in the progressive labor press?
Though it is not a full-text database, as an OCLC FirstSearch database, the API provides links to GOLD holdings from the Georgia Libraries Journal List. The API is currently available to the following GALILEO consortia: The University System of Georgia, Technical College Libraries, and AMPALS (Atlanta-Macon Private Academic Libraries), a private consortium representing

such universities as Emory, Agnes Scott, and the Atlanta University Center.
The database is produced by The Alternative Press Center (APC), a non-profit collective dedicated to providing access to and increasing public awareness of the alternative press. Since it began in 1969, it has indexed 880 newspaper and periodical titles to provide access to the practices and theories of radical social change. The API is international and interdisciplinary, covers the social sciences and humanities, and includes both popular and scholarly magazines and journals.
The online directory of the publications indexed API can be browsed by title or subject (it is available on the APC web site at www.altpress.org). Entries include typical information

about a publication (phone, address, web site, editorial staff, subscription prices, circulation figures, ISSN, etc.). However, in addition, it tells where a publication is indexed (in API as well as others indexes and databases). If a publication has been reviewed, the entry provides the bibliographic citation to the review(s) that can be found in Katz Magazines for Libraries and elsewhere. The directory does include some publications that are not indexed in the API. The link to the journal title list on the scope screen for this database in GALILEO goes to the online directory.
If you are looking for links to free Internet sites on alternative organizations and issues, the APC web site provides links arranged by site name or subject (from Activism and Africa to Zapatistas and Zines).

Im My Own Grandpa!

(Or, Adventures in Genealogy)

by Rand Raynor, GALILEO Support Specialist

Georgias public libraries have gotten very crowded in the past few months. Over one billion people have arrived, and let me tell you, most of them are very, very old. My Grandpa Lou is there, sixty years after he opened his first delicatessen in Brooklyn. Your Great Aunt Fanny is there, not to mention GreatGreat-Great Grandpa Roscoe. How is this possible, you ask?

GALILEO Library Door Decal
At their July 27 meeting, the GALILEO Steering Committee approved an initiative to increase awareness of GALILEO through the use of library door decals. These decals, displayed on participating libraries entrances, are intended to inform patrons about GALILEOs world of information at the moment that they enter the library, as well as to provide a visual link among all GALILEO libraries. During fall 2001, each GALILEO library has received two decals for displaya large version (8 1/2 x 11 inches) and a small version (3 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches). The decals, displayed prominently at the librarys entrance, will designate the facility as a GALILEO Participating Library. The decals are transparent and reverse-printed, meaning that they are to be placed on the inside of a glass door or window, to be viewed from the outside. Additional decals will be available from GALILEO Support Services.

turies. Youll even find the Salem Witches, an historical database listing hundreds of individuals accused of witchcraft in New England between 1647 and 1697. (I think my great Aunt Mildred is listed there. If not, she ought to be!)
Whats that? You dont know how to get started on your genealogical research? AncestryPlus has a section titled Getting Started, which will put you on the right track. Also, the Learning Center provides vast resources for taking your research to the next level. So what are you waiting for? AncestryPlus is fun! Its fascinating! And its only at your public library!
