No problem. Anyone can do it if they have a telnet connection.

Try linking to this address and see what happens: telnet://hollis.harvard.edu/

If you get into HOLLIS, you can replicate the same search or look for
whatever interests you. I was just having fun on a slow day. <g>
Lots of other libraries are accessible through telnet, BTW. See if your
local library has one - you can do an Internet Search (I assume) for your
local community and see if they have a link to their public library. If
so, odds are fairly good that the library is now on-line.

Good luck!

Best,
Richard
