Subject: searching by colour
A colleague here at King's has alerted me to a brilliant innovation in
bibliographic referencing recently put into practice at the library of the
New England School of Law. Apparently, so many people were asking for books
of which they only could remember the colour that the Library devised an
index to help. See and search for yourself, at
<http://38.232.116.10/screens/well_its_red.html>.
Yours,
WM
