A forwarded message from the RedLightGreen Team....

Dear RedLightGreen user,

I am contacting you to let you know that on November 5th the
RedLightGreen service will end. RLG, RedLightGreen's parent
not-for-profit company has combined forces with another organization
that supports a similar service, WorldCat.org. We have decided to
invest all of our efforts into developing and supporting a single
product rather than continuing to support two.

We'd like to encourage you to update your RedLightGreen bookmarks to
point to WorldCat.org, and to try out this new service that will help
you find books and other research resources provided by nearly 12,000
libraries worldwide. Like RedLightGreen, WorldCat.org will help you
get access to research materials at your local library. WorldCat.org
is easy to use, and supports many of the same features as
RedLightGreen; the one service that WorldCat.org does not currently
support is citation formatting, but we are working on implementing
this feature in WorldCat.org in the near future.

If you saved citations in RedLightGreen, you can retrieve your
citation list from RedLightGreen until November 4th by following these
steps:

- Connect to RedLightGreen Use the Sign In link (if you aren't
automatically signed in)
- Click the Your List link in the upper right
- You can then select the E-Mail link to send your citations to your
e-mail account, or get a printer-friendly view to print or download

If you have questions or comments, use the Feedback link on any page
in RedLightGreen to let us know.

We want to take this opportunity to thank you for using RedLightGreen.
We wish you the best of luck in locating useful books and other
research resources.

The RedLightGreen Team
