Those stuffed wooden drawers with yellowed index cards. Miss those days when cards were unintentionally misfiled and the search was within our control. I went to the Online Catalog and was so disappointed with the search engine results and advanced filters. Just give me the general Dewey Decimal number and I'll hunt and peck. Nice, Bevvie!

Some of my best friends lived in the card catalog.

My love of reading was nurtured by those yellowed, dog-eared cards. I can almost smell thrm :-)
