I checked, and it does look like your <a href="http://www.forestparkpubliclibrary.org/" rel="nofollow">local library</a> subscribes to ReferenceUSA. I remember when I was setting up our remote access with them that they had some funny rules about where links came from. Try first going to your library's <a href="http://www.forestparkpubliclibrary.org/databases.htm" rel="nofollow">databases webpage</a> and linking to ReferenceUSA from there. If that doesn't work, I guess contact your library or <a href="http://www.referenceusa.com/cu/cu.asp?rusa=1" rel="nofollow">ReferenceUSA</a> directly. I hope this helps. I’m not sure.
