New U.S. Census Bureau Data

The U.S. Census Bureau has released the first 2005 data set from the full implementation of the American Community Survey (ACS). The ACS is a new nationwide survey that provides annually updated demographic, socioeconomic, and housing information; ACS will eventually replace the decennial long form in future censuses. The data is available via the Census Bureau’s American FactFinder site.

PantherCat Now LIVE!

PantherCat is now available for your use. All the Personal Record functions such as UW System Borrowing, renewals and recalls are now once again available. NOTE: UW System Searching has a bug that we are currently working on. Users can only search one Library at a time when searching for material at this time. We hope to have this problem fixed soon. We thank you all for your patience during this upgrade to our Library System.
