1. Minor changes to our web-site

We have made a couple of minor changes to the web-site: firstly, we have simplified the Search page, and secondly we have added a publication list. We hope these changes make the site easier to use, and that they are self-explanatory

2. Free access to on-line images at participating libraries

You should now be able to get free access to on-line image offered on a pay-per-view basis on this web-site if you visit any of the libraries participating in this project. Libraries included are all the libraries which offer public internet access within the Dudley Council, Warwickshire County Council and Wolverhampton Council areas.
