Frustratingly, there is nothing of value in the newsletter. There is no mention of WHAT was added. If you go to the collections nothing there provides clues as to what the new material is. If you search the results can not be sorted by Date Added. Nor in the Advanced Search can you specify recently added material.

This in order to find the material you are looking for you have to re-do the search all over again and review all of the same results you have seen before. This is a big time-waster.

Rick Womack, until you contribute one red cent to this FREE search, please keep your lips trapped. I hear enough crying and complaining from our 3 year old. I bet you would complain if someone dropped a $100 bill in your lap, because it wasn't $200 they dropped.
