  • Computer Produced Media Guides. Jeffcott, Janet B. Audiovisual Aids Automatic Indexing Book Catalogs Catalogs College Libraries Educational Media Indexes Learning Resources Centers Library Automation Library Collections Permuted Indexes Speeches To increase access to the media collection at the Madison Area Technical College (Wisconsin) a computer-produced key work index was created using an International Business Machine (IBM) 360 model 40 computer and a duplicating facility with offset capability. A standard 80 column IBM card was used reserving columns 1-9 for the media item number, 11-78 for the title, and column 80 for a location mark indicating the campus. Use of the automated media guide has increased media center circulation nearly 100%. Printout size was a problem, and a switch to printing on microfiche or accessing the media tape via cathode ray terminal was planned. (Author/DS)
