Title

¬The Reference Expert : a coputerized database utilizing INMAGIC and a WORM drive

Source

Database. 14(1991) no.6, S.35-38

Year

1991

Abstract

The Reference Expert is a computerised file containing reference problem questions and answers that can be used by staff on the reference desk. The data base was installed by the Reference Division of Texas A&M University's Sterling C. Evans Library to act as a collective memory for reference staff to find answers to infrequently asked difficult questions. The Reference Expert was built using INMAGIC version 7.1 free text indexing software and employs a worm disc for storage. Describes the file structure of records in the system, staff response, and problems encountered
