Librarian in charge of Electronic Resources at Madison Public Library
"PROOF! Just call me Detective Colombo"
Neeyati: Archive of Wisconsin Newspapers in particular has been a huge asset for us at Madison Public Library. As the resource library for South Central Library System, we get a lot of local history and obituary requests, and having a searchable archive of community publications at our fingertips makes that work so much easier. We've been able to hunt down newspaper articles that help patrons celebrate wedding anniversaries, conduct genealogical research -- or even settle a friendly argument about when or where an event took place!
One patron forwarded an article we found to her daughter with the subject line: "PROOF! Just call me Detective Colombo"
