Academic Libraries Databases Elementary Secondary Education Evaluation Criteria Higher Education Information Retrieval Information Services Law Libraries Optical Data Disks Public Libraries School Libraries State of the Art Reviews Technological Advancement User Satisfaction (Information) This document summarizes the nine presentations made at an institute on laser disk systems in libraries held at the Library of Congress in May 1987. The first speaker, Linda Helgerson, discussed advances in CD-ROM technology as well as its advantages and disadvantages. Judy McQueen focused primarily on the disadvantages of CD-ROM and urged caution in adopting the new technology. Deborah Bezanson described the implementation and evaluation of patron access to the PsychLit database on CD-ROM in an academic library. Less satisfactory experiences with the use of INFOTRAC by law students and law professionals who had experience with online searching were described by Phil Berwick. Experiences with Books-In-Print Plus (BIP+) were related by Chester Pletzke, who was favorably impressed by the system but found that listings for publishers were not up-to-date. Charles Worsley discussed applications of CD-ROM in school libraries and outlined plans for implementing CD-ROM in a public school district. The costs of CD-ROM systems and problems in dealing with vendors and consultants were discussed by Charles Robinson. Linda Kosmin observed that most producers have been slow to recognize the market potential of scientific and technical libraries for the right products. The final speaker, Michael Halperin, described the advantages of DATEXT as a source of data on individual companies and industries. A list of exhibitors at the institute concludes the report. (CGD) |
