Paul's right. Someone *will* say that. But the obvious reply is: Who says there's no library? The 'library' in virtual environments is, well, virtual. But that's not to say it's unreal. There's a library, all right. It just looks a bit different than the one on campus.

Anyone who asks the question Paul mentions just needs a little education about finding information in the online world, I reckon.
