		<title>Printing/Copying Payment System Upgrade</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This past week Southern Seminary upgraded its Shield Card payment system for copying/printing on campus. This change directly impacts the library, where most self-serve copying/printing occurs. We think you will appreciate our new system for two reasons. First, the new system works almost exactly like the old system. That means there is not much of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Item Detail View, Part 2 – Item Availability</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the most common questions I am asked when helping patrons use our catalog concerns item availability. Patrons want to know if the item is in the library and available to check out. Answering this question was not always intuitive for researchers using our older online catalog. For example, look at the screenshot below [...]]]></description>

Now, to use the many new features of WCL, you no longer need to go to sbts.worldcat.org, but you can navigate to our web page, type your search terms, and you will be taken directly [...]]]></description>

		<title>Item Detail View, Part 1</title>
		<description><![CDATA[While perusing your search results in WorldCat Local (WCL), inevitably you will want more information about a particular item. For example, say you run a search on the keywords “church history reformation.” The second result is The Reformation: How a Monk and a Mallet Changed the World. You notice that this title is a book [...]]]></description>

		<title>WCL - The Search Results Screen</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A significant improvement in WCL over our classic OPAC is the way in which search results are delivered. The search results screen resembles the design of online retailers such as Amazon.com, providing an intuitive place to begin sifting through works that relate to your research topic.

The improvements in WCL are more than merely aesthetic; they [...]]]></description>
