Create point-of-need tutorials quickly with
ViewletBuilder and post them to your Web site. In a matter of minutes you

face-to-face reference services, from how to recall a book, requesting an
interlibrary loan to limiting a search to scholarly articles published in

accompanying text and/or audio. Make the most of ViewletBuilder for on-line
instruction, reusing, repurposing and sharing viewlet content. Find out how
easy it is to build tutorials for a consortium and edit them to reflect local
