Liburutegitik: From the Basque Library
by Marcelino Ugalde

The Basque Library has worked hard this past year to put up a World Wide Web page. It will continue in this effort to add other links to valuable internet information and to add local information or at least bibliographic information from many of the subcollections in the Basque Library until they are cataloged and added to the University Libraries’ online catalog, WolfPAC, or the NEVADA EDUCATIONAL ONLINE NETWORK system. You can access the Basque Library’s webpage at the following URL address: http://www.library.unr.edu/~basqlib/.

The library has not been disappointed with extending public service hours to Saturday afternoons, but rather very pleased with the number of patrons, utilizing the Basque collections. This spring has demonstrated even more use than last fall. A decision for extended summer hours has not been reached yet. This year the Basque Library staff hopes to create a few new programs to encourage the local Basque community to visit the library more often.

As more and more Basque material is cataloged and access to abstracted and full-text Basque electronic information increases, Basque Library circulation and interlibrary loan figures continue to rise. From the recently completed Basque cataloging grant project, interlibrary loan requests have experienced a 700% increase. Circulation of Basque material is up 73.6% from last year.
