- Abstract
- Paper presented at the Library Association 'Under 1 umbrella 2' Conference, Manchester, Jul 93. Computers are good at flexible data storage and distribution, data manipulation and transfromation, and rules. These abilities give rise to a couple areas of general functionality which are of use to cataloguers: integration of cataloguing tools, and intelligent assistance. Cataloguers are good at suggesting structures for organizing and managing information in a consistent way, understanding the problems of human language and providing useful interfaces between the general enquirer and the answer. Discusses the concept of virtual reality and what it can do for the user but warns that it cannot be effectively implemented without the appropriate combination of information technology and information management skills
