- Abstract
- Reviews the main features of Computer Select: a CD-ROM database from Ziff Communications, Co., New York, which provides the full text of over 60 computer periodicals and is designed to enable users of information on software and suppliers, of the type found in 'PC magazine', but which is difficult to find by browsing printed copies of such periodicals. A librarian's perspective is provided by the critical comments of Kathrin Hoover, corporate librarian of Electronic Data Systems, Texas. Concludes that the annual subscription of $ 700,- is high and there are some desirable feature lacking, but rates Computer Select as unparalleled as a tool for finding information rapidly
