[OPLINLIST] Chilton Manuals in Collection

[welchly at herrickliboh.org]

We have made the Chilton's and Motor manuals a priority, as so many 
people here still use them and don't have/want internet access. But most 
of the surrounding libraries have gotten rid of theirs as their 
clientele was not using them.

Hope this helps ~
