    Abstract
    Reports the findings of a study, conducted by Temple, Barker and Sloane Inc., MA, which identified 7 measurable benefits of graphic user interfaces to computerized information retrieval systems; higher speed; more accurate work; higher productivity; less frustration; less fatigue, more facilities to self teach and explore system; greater facilities for novices to learn more about the system's capabilities. Concludes that, when compared with character based user interfaces, graphic user interfaces generate higher work outputs per work hour through higher productivity; higher work output per employee through lower levels of frustration and fatigue; and greater returns on information technology investment through reduced demand for user training

    Abstract
    Examines the possibility of CD-ROM databases supplanting traditional online database searching methods as a result of greater cost effectiveness, speed and ease of use. Concludes that CD-ROMs will not replace online databases in the near future because of the greater variety and amount of information which is available online. Points to the lack of standardization running through many aspects of CD-ROM technology
