contents The Integrated Bibliographic Information System: Resource Sharing Tailored for Local Needs. Cotter, Gladys A. Hartt, Richard W. Access to Information Bibliographic Utilities Government Libraries Information Retrieval Library Automation Library Networks Machine Readable Cataloging Online Catalogs Scientific and Technical Information Shared Library Resources User Needs (Information) The Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC), which is charged with providing information services to the scientific and technical community of the Department of Defense (DoD), actively seeks ways to promote resource sharing as a means for speeding access to information while reducing the costs of information processing throughout the defense technical library community. As part of this research, DTIC is sponsoring the development of the Integrated Bibliographic Information System (IBIS). The system prototype, which has been under development since April 1983, will be used to demonstrate and evaluate the advantages of combining an integrated library system with an intelligent gateway capable of simultaneously querying and updating heterogeneous bibliographic databases using a common command language. Users will be able to download and post-process data from external sources, thus allowing them to tailor search results to their patrons' needs economically and efficiently. Upon the successful conclusion of the demonstration project, DTIC plans to implement an operational version of the IBIS which will be the baseline component of a coordinated scientific and technical information (STI) network joining together the libraries and information centers of the DoD. Six references are listed. (KM)
