The calculator worksheet has been adapted from the downloadable spreadsheet, originally provided by the Massachusetts Library Association and then adapted for the web by Chelmsford Public Library. The calculator was then further tailored to the Bowling Green Public Library. This spreadsheet requires either Microsoft Excel or the Excel Viewer.
