Hello Metro,
Collection Development is considering alternatives to our current group of automotive reference and repair resources. One of the new resources we're considering is the Chilton online automotive library. With your supervisor's approval, please try out this new resource and try to keep in mind how it compares to Metro's current Mitchell automotive resource. The Trial link can be accessed here. The access code you'll need is: okla66073.

We have decided not to renew Metro's subscription to Infobase's platform Issues & Controversies. This database has experienced a downward trend in usage for multiple years now, and it did not respond to a recent attempt to increase awareness among guests. Further, the information provided on the platform is available through more widely used news and financial resources. This does NOT apply to the platform Issues & Controversies in History.
