Abstract
The “Libraries in Rhode Island” menu of the Ocean State Free‐Net (OSFN; see figure 1) presents the overarching multilibrary network in the state of Rhode Island (see figure 2). The Rhode Island Depart‐ment of State Library Services initiated the OSFN to provide online public access to libraries statewide. The menu represents access to the catalogs of 51 of Rhode Island's 62 public and academic libraries.
