[Eril-l] GeoBib?

[Platkowski, Melissa]

Sounds to me like you're well on your way to becoming a great ERL!  Sleuthing is a pretty big part of that job and this is a totally ok topic for this list.

We have a link to GeoBib, too - and it's also going somewhere weird.  We're a UW school, too, and I didn't know this was going away, either.  (So thanks for the head's up!)  I have asked for more investigation from an internal UW listserv that handles collection management.  Someone should be able to find out.  I'll respond to the list when I have an answer.

Hi All,

This is my first post to this list and I am a new ERL so I hope this is an appropriate question for the list. Our link to GeoBib is broken. We got a 404 directory error. So in searching I found reference to a new link, geobib.lib.uwm.edu however, that link goes someplace bizarre. I can't find an accurate new link.  GeoBib seems to be a free resource from AGS/UWM. I contacted AGS and UWM to see if resource is still available and what the new URL is. UWM confirmed the link is not working and *think* the resource is no longer maintained. They suggested that I contact AGS which I have, but I have not had a reply. Anyone know if this resource is really gone? I don't want to remove it from our database list without being more certain.

Thanks,
Tina
