Computer Software Electronic Publishing Library Automation Library Circulation Library Technical Processes Microcomputers Special Libraries This report describes the use of Apple Macintosh computers in the Merriam Center Library (MCL) (Illinois), a small, specialized library located on the campus of the University of Chicago.

Valauskas); (2) "Update on Periodical Management with a Macintosh in a Special Library" (Michael A. Wilson); (3) "Macintosh-Mainframe Applications in a Special Library" (Dennis A. Jenks and Edward J.
