Jacobson, Charles Agribusiness Cataloging Computer Programs Coordinate Indexes Indexing Information Retrieval Library Automation Program Descriptions Search Strategies Special Libraries A library specialist and a computer specialist were asked to collaborate to solve the problem of a growing and diversified in-house, technical library in a diversified agribusiness organization. A computer program was written to: (1) generate alphabetical catalogs of collections; (2) index documents by uniterms; and (3) to retrieve documents by index terms. Books, periodicals, and documents can be rapidly indexed, updated, added, or deleted; and printouts of the latest holdings can be obtained instantaneously. (EMH)
