| contents | Missouri Library Connection: A Beginner's Guide to the Bibliofile/Microcomputer System. Raithel, Frederick J. Foster, Paul Bibliographic Databases Database Management Systems Interlibrary Loans Library Automation Machine Readable Cataloging Menu Driven Software Microcomputers Online Catalogs Shared Library Resources Union Catalogs In 1988, the Missouri State Library offered microcomputers to Missouri public libraries to help them implement a retrospective conversion of their cataloging system to an online system called Bibliofile. The goal of the State Library was to create and maintain a Union Catalog for Missouri libraries. This guide provides Missouri library personnel with basic information on: (1) setting up the system (e.g., how to plug in cables and how to hook up a printer); (2) operating the computer equipment (e.g., how to insert a floppy disk into the "A" drive and how to format disks); (3) what the available menu options consist of (e.g., Bibliofile, word processing, telecommunications, reference databases, and computer-assisted instruction); (4) how to use the maintenance operations menu (e.g., backing up disks and restoring data); (5) how to use the CD-ROM Bibliofile system (i.e., step by step instructions for conducting a search and creating catalog cards); and (6) troubleshooting four common problems. The brief technical programming notes which conclude the guide include a list of the subdirectories of the system. (SD) |
