Amidst the discussions on the future of libraries, books and printing that have been going on for some time now, Plcmc.org is a great example of the kind of sites and help users expect from their libraries in the era of Wikipedia and Google. By visiting it, not only will you discover a very nicely designed site with plenty of functionalities, but also check out the full library catalogue, learn what new books have been purchased, log on to your profile to see when books which you’ve borrowed are due, renew your subscription, pay for fees online, explore the digital archive of eBooks, audiobooks, videos and other multimedia, and lots other features as well. The site also carries special sections comprising links and resources to make your tax declarations, and even a section where the library’s staff recommend booklists on several categories to get a crash-course on anything you like, from the best of fiction, science-fiction, short stories or romance, or even follow the trail of the books you’ve already read and enjoyed. For instance, if you are a fan of the ‘A thousand splendid suns’, find a list of similarly themed books which you will probably enjoy. For younger audiences, the site offers a variety of homework help and reference works, plus games and activities, like coloring pages and fun facts. Plcmc.org is also a part of the Second Life project, a 3D world designed and run by its residents, and is calling teens to provide ideas on what they’d like to see happening there, in a great and successful effort to help them get in touch with the library.
