Here's an inexpensive way to create a searchable Church Library catalog.

1. List your resources alphabetically on a webpage or series of pages.

2. Go to Google.com and learn how to create a Google search box that just searches your website. (example found on the main page at www.hilliardpres.org) Use an Internet search engine to "search only" your web pages.

When picking software for your church office, keep these things in mind:

1. Most churches utilize only a fraction of a program's capabilities. Buying extra features you may never use seems foolish.

2. Ease of use, support and stability of the company are paramount concerns, NOT price.

3. Make sure the company you're dealing with offers excellent technical support and easy to read manuals. Look for web-based support and help.

4. Will this company be in business three years from now when I need a newer version?

5. Is the current version they are selling up-to-date? I.E.... If they only offer a Windows 3.1 version, walk away.

6. Make sure the company offers training ...and then get it. Too often churches buy a new computer and new software package only to run out of money and never get proper training.

7. Make sure the people selecting your software know what they are doing. The church's accounting software decision is no place for armchair techies and amateur bookkeepers.
