the website itself sucks (and doesn’t work without a www on the front, which is just lame—so 1996…); the catalog is a pain (which goes with the staff program, which is several pains at once); the article search (which is outsourced to some private company, it’s not even on Pitt’s server. . .) claims to also search books, but doesn’t; …. but maybe i just need to stop comparing Pitt to Michigan (whose libraries i worked at in high school and community college).
