I kept being to ld it couldn't be done not I know it can so I just emailed it to our principal. If the tech guys can't do I am pretty sure I know some 15 year olds who can.

Anyway, I asked when they were planning to put it online. They said, "We're not. Why would we want our catalog online?" I said, "Well, what if I'm at home at 10 pm and I want to see if you have a book so I can put a hold on it?" Blank stares. It's hard to know how to respond at that point--so kudos to Kimball for at least getting as far as they did.
