    Abstract
    The more than 3700 data presented in the tables of preceding articles in this series, pertaining 37 different software packages for information storage and retrieval (ISR), may seem overwhelming to the reader who needs to make a well-founded choice. To make this task easier, some general questions can be asked with respect to the desired ISR application. These questions can be summarised as: what sort of information? How much? For whom? For what purpose? At what cost? The discussion about user needs, typical applications and lists of demands centres around these five basic questions in relation to the categories of retrieval software which were identified in the six earlier articles. They cover the whole range from bibliographic software to advanced full-text retrieval software

    Abstract
    Information processing is concerned with the representation, storage, organization and access of data. In the case of online databases, it is expected that the information should be retrieved as fast as possible. The query time depends upon how the information has been stored in the database, that is the record structure and associated indexes, as well as the file organization. Based on these concepts, information retrieval software has been developed at the Indian National Scientific Documentation Centre (INSDOC) for bibliographic databases. Describes the salient features of this software

    Abstract
    The computer software package CDS/ISIS is suitable for the storage and retrieval of structured, text-oriented information, such as bibliographic descriptions. Versions exist for various hardware including IBM microcomputers and compatibles. The software is very attractive, mainly because it is powerful and because the producer, Unesco, normally fulfils requests to use it for free. Micro CDS/ISIS is reviewed in this paper which includes recent experience with version 2.3

    Abstract
    The availability of powerful indexing and database products with easy Web connections means that libraries able to gather and edit their own data are emancipated from the large vendors. The Oregon State Library staff used the Data Magician translation utility as part of a complex, but speedy, database converison project. The Oregon Index database of approximately 300.000 records was converted from a BRS database host over to the Inmagic WebPublisher system. Describes the planning and action stepts used in producing the Web accessible index database of considerable size. Participants have high ratings to effectiveness of both the translation utility and the database engine

    Abstract
    During 1994, Dataware Technologies acquired the BRS/SEARCH text retrieval package from InfoPro Technologies, as well as exclusive worldwide marketing rights for the Total Recall application programming interface from Kinesis. The products are now being used to create information management applications which offer users the best of 2 very different worlds: the processing power of the relational database, together with the content based searching facilities of a text retrieval system. Discusses the advantages of this, noting also that the package can be used in setting up WWW sites

    Abstract
    Reports the results of a study, conducted at the National Technical Information Centre and Library (OMIKK), Hungary, to compare 5 popular proprietary CD-ROM searching software packages: OPTIWARE; BRS/Search; ProQuest; SPIRS; and Dialog OnDisc Manager. Software evaluation was based on analysis of a range of CD-ROM bibliographic databases (with the exception of BRS/Search for which the library held no bibliographic databases) and focused on: response times for various activities (logging on, searching, retrieval, display); other performance factors; direct searching features (Boolean operators, proximity operators, arithmetic relations, truncation); index browsing; search strategy handling; display possibilities; output possibilities; and ergonomic and user friendliness factors. No general conclusions are drawn and users are left to draw their own conclusions

    Abstract
    Describes the development, by the Faculty of Computer Science and Information Technology, Malaya University, of ONLIS (Online Library Information System), a customized user interface for coputerized MARC cataloguing and information retrieval, targeted for use in small libraries and information centres. Micro CDS/ISIS ver. 3.07 software package and its built in PAscal language were used for the design process and development. Design philosophy centres on the development of a very user friendly and simple interface, capable of mimicking the salient features of a contemporary commercial library package, yet easy to implement and maintain in a small library environment requiring little or no technical expertise. The system incorporates many new features and comprises 2 main components: data entry and file maintenace; and information retrieval. A security system is incorporated into the former environment to ensure data integrity and regulate important file maintenance tasks. While the system is ready for immediate implementation in libraries, modifications and enhancements are currently being undertaken to make it a truly reliable product. Concludes that some degree of user training in MARC and cataloguing using AACR2 is necessary to get the maximum benefits from the systems

    Abstract
    CDS/ISIS is a powerful and popular software package for managing computerized bibliographic data. It is developed and maintained by UNESCO since 1985. It is free software available in binary form for MS-DOS, MS-Windows, Unix, and Unix-based operating systems like Linux. It is used by many libraries and organizations in many countries to maintain their Online Public Access Catalogues (OPACs) and other bibliographic databases. With the advent of the Internet and Web technologies, publishing the content of databases on the Web provides a round the clock access to the content from any PC with Internet access. Some CDS-ISIS databases are published on the Web, but many are still on standalone systems or on local area networks. Interoperability is the key for the efficient dissemination of information to end-users. The Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH) provides a technical framework for interoperability of OAI-compliant digital libraries (UNESCO. 2004). However, CDS/ISIS databases are not OAI-compliant. In this paper, we describe a simple approach, to make CDS/ISIS OAI-compliant. It is based on printing CDS/ISIS records in an OAI static repository format.

    Abstract
    Bibliographical databases employing a controlled vocabulary and a Boolean logic approach to retrieval remain the norm. The record structures for databases of this kind need to be designed in a way that reflects the underlying nature of the particular information they contain. Using education as a case study, a basic record structure is described. Possible extensions to this structure are discussed. Professionals in small libraries, working in a PC environment and with time and resource constraints, are the intended audience

    Abstract
    Design aspects of bibliographic databases are of utmost importance for effective resource sharing and for providing better information retrieval services in libraries. Standard formats such as the Common Communication Format (CCF) may be adapted for the design of databases. Experience shows that some modifications to the CCF format may be more useful for manipulation of data for various libray operations. Proposes the design of a bibliographic database based on CCF for use in Micr-CDS/ISIS. Almost all the mandatory CCF fields have been adopted and a few new fields added for achieving better results. Formats for display of records conform to AACR2. Provides ample catalogue entries and sample indexes to illustrate how the proposed design helps perform various information retrieval operations in libraries. Modifications in the display of records may be achieved with little effort

    Abstract
    CDS/ISIS is a menu-driven generalized information storage and retrieval system designed specifically for the computerized management of structured non-numerical data bases. The unique characteristic of CDS/ISIS is that it is specifically designed to handle fields (and consequently records) of varying length, thus allowing, on the one hand, an optimum utilization of disk storage and, on the other hand, a complete freedom in defining the maximum length of each field. Although some features of CDS/ISIS require some knowledge of and experience with computerized information systems, once an application has been designed the system may be used by persons having little or no prior computer experience.
