    Abstract
    Expert systems have promised much more than they have delivered. Although expert systems in libraries have been discussed extensively, there are few working systems. Development rarely progresses beyond the prototype. Presents a case study of the construction of a simple expert system at Banktown City library's community information service involving a narrow, precise domain. Observes the working of the system. The benefits of simple expert systems are that they are useful to knowledgeable users, they may be used for training and can give guided and structured information in a way that books and pamphlets do not

    Abstract
    The issue of whether or not a librarian should attempt to answer all requests for information, regardless of the use to which the information may be put, is a vexed one. This paper discusses the issue in the context of expert systems in reference work, and suggests that the need for the reference librarian to use discretion has implications for expert system development. It examines the role of the reference librarian, discusses the cases for and against answering all requests for information, outlines the behaviour of expert systems in reference, and discusses possible problems and solutions
