Wired has an article on a new service formed by the Library of Congress and more than 60 participant libraries around the world. It sounds like virtual reference, but with a common interface for all 60 libraries. It will be open around the clock, making use of the difference in time zones at different libraries. This site, for the Global Reference Network, describes the project and says it is called QuestionPoint. However, the web site for Question Point seems to be product support.
Update: 08/04 12:34 EST by B:As cronopi0 points out, it was new a few years back. I guess it’s been moved Here?
Article is nearly 4 years old
The Wired article is dated 24 November 2000. Even the link to the press release on the Global Reference Network page is broken.
Re:Article is nearly 4 years old
Is this information coming from a Pakistani hard drive, by any chance?
