- Abstract
- Hartford University mounted a DRA Atlas Integrated library system in 1991, using a DECnet/Ethernet network and a VAX 6310 mainframe computer. As VAX VT320 terminals were available in many campus buildings, the library's catalogue could be searched from many locations and could be dialed up by remote users. Commercial databases in MARC format could be mounted on the system and searched with the same commands that users employed for the OPAC. Explains the use of Periodical Abstracts from UMI on the online catalogue. Discusses searching strategies and compares the Periodical Abstracts Ondisc CD-ROM with the tape loaded product
