    Abstract
    Reports findings on Europe as a market for US companies with internationally appealing databases. Diversity of language is not a problem, as users are adjusted to working in English but the products they wish to see are native sources of information, particularly more reliable and detailed business information. Discusses the growing demand for and some dissatisfaction with CD-ROMs and CD-ROM networks. Concludes that there are no insuperable barriers to US marketing success in Europe or vice versa

    Abstract
    Describes 4 search engines for the Internet: infoMarket Search; Yahoo and OpenText; Lycos Spider; and WebCompass. InfoMarket Search retrieves data from Web pages and information providers such as Disclosure, Information Access Company and Cambridge Scientific Abstracts. It is able to search millions of Web pages in under five seconds. Automated 'crawlers' index the complete text of Web documents. Yahoo enables users to search for specific words and phrases and conduct multilevel Boolean and weighted searches. Lycos spider offers support for HotJava and indexes 91% of the Web. WebCompass polls multiple search engines such as Lycos and InfoSeek for relevant Web pages. A personalized index of topics may be built and retrieved data stored in a format based on Microsoft Access 2.0

    Abstract
    Knowledge management is not simply an extension of information management but requires a company to change its culture and processes using IT to make knowledge easily used and distributed. A survey showed 90% of US and European respondents considered themselves as knowledge intensive businesses and 96% agreed that they could get more value from their knowledge base. As firms turn to knowledge management, text retrieval companies are launching or developing knowledge management products. Describes the Knowledge Network suite of the Canadian firm, Fulcrum Technologies. This software is selling well but Fulcrum is in a precarious position as its traditional customer base is shrinking faster than expected. As another example, refers to the strategy adopted by Dataware technologies for countering cash flow problems by selling part of its operation to build up cash reserves and pinning its future on Dataware 2

    Abstract
    Discusses the implications for users of patent information of the decision by the European Patent Office (EPO) to follow the US by offering the full text of patents, free, via the Internet. This poses a threat to the traditional vendors and could result in the loss of sophisticated searching should they withdraw from the patent information market. While it is possible that the Internet and online vendors could supply complementary levels of service, high quality patent abstracting and indexing is expensive and vendors are under pressure to reduce prices. Describes the implementation of the EPO project and the impact on MicroPatent of IBM's Web based patent service
