contents Specification of a Mechanized Center for Information Services for a Public Library Reference Center. Final Report. Part 2, A State Library-Network for Technical Information Service to California Business and Industry. Reilly, K. D. Automation Business Centralization Industry Information Services Information Systems Library Cooperation Library Networks Library Services Library Technical Processes Reference Services State Programs This part of the final report provides an historical context for a state technical information system by reviewing prior work toward establishment of state-wide cooperation among libraries, with particular emphasis on service to business and industry. It then outlines a network schematic which incorporates both geographic groupings and specialty groupings of libraries. It defines two kinds of centralized facilities: a processing center and a switching center. The processing center serves the function of producing for wide-scale distribution catalogs of the holdings of groups of libraries. The switching center serves as a directory service, providing both the information and the technology for facilitating communications among libraries. This part of the report concludes with a time-table for network development, covering efforts now underway or soon to be started and those planned for the future. (Author)
