The old text-only browser version of my local library still outdoes the new site
Everyone raves about the modern catalog, but the 2003-era Lynx version at library.plainville.org loads in 2 seconds on my laptop. I tried the fancy search with filters and got nothing, then typed the same title into the plain HTML box and it pulled up 14 copies across 3 branches. The trick is using the exact Dewey number after the colon, like 641.5 for cookbooks. Anyone else prefer stripped down legacy interfaces over the polished ones?

Exact Dewey number after the colon? Nice to know the library is still running on secrets from 1998.
