NetTrekker, Pinpoint Team Up

By Meg McCaffrey -- School Library Journal, 12/1/2003

on this article

Two popular products have been combined to offer Web users one-stop shopping for quality resources. Thinkronize's netTrekker, a curriculum-oriented search engine for schools, and Sagebrush's Pinpoint, a customizable tool that lets students and teachers search a library's catalog, subscription databases, and Web sites, are now being sold as a single package by Sagebrush and will offer access to more than 180,000 online resources.

When students search online using the combined products , librarians can set the program to display library resources first—encouraging kids to look at library holdings before leaping haphazardly onto the Web. For more information, visit www.sagebrushcorp.com.

Although the two products can still be purchased separately, Sagebrush will combine netTrekker and Pinpoint when customers purchase both products. Pinpoint pricing begins at 65 cents per student per year, and annual netTrekker pricing starts at $1.40 per student. Volume discounts are available. Prices include training for customers who purchase the combined package.
