new library catalog

What are other people's thoughts on the new UT library catalog online search format?

My initial reaction is that it has too many fancy features which make it unnecessarily clunky, and I don't really need to see pictures of book covers, as I don't need my library catalog to feel like Amazon.

I'm glad that they made the advance features more accessible. But the images of the books seems totally wasteful - I think they should only have images if there is an electronic copy available.

I'm glad that you can search specifically within libraries. That's really handy.

You can also save citations from the catalog and later transfer them to Endnote. Yea!
