I have a pretty neat setup myself.  I can access the entire Timberland 
Regional Librarys book collection, place holds on books, have them sent 
to a specific library, and get notified in the mail when they arrive for 
pickup.  I do this from my home computer.  The best thing about it is I 
have all my "held" books sent the the library that my wife is in charge 
of and she brings them home for me.  Being a kindergarten teacher, I 
read several books a day!
