    Abstract
    Reports a survey of all academic members of the Association of Research Libraries in the 4th quarter of 1997 which examined how academic libraries incorporate electronic information sources into their reference activities and the effects on libraries services. There was a response rate of 68 per cent, Compares results surveys carried out in 1991 and 1994. The survey covered: numbers of computers access options (intermediary, end user online, CD-ROM locally loaded databases or those accessible through the library catalogue and the Internet. There is a trend away from print resources, particularly indexing and abstracting materials, and away from CD-ROM LANs and local loading of databases towards remote online resources

    Abstract
    Reports on a survey of ARL (Ass. of Research Libraries) members in the USA in 1994, which sought to find out the electronic reference services that are offered by these libraries and how the services affect reference staff, the expectations of users, and user instruction. The services covered include CD-ROM, intermediary online searching, end user online (e.g. FirstSearch), tape loaded databases and user access to the Internet, including electronic mail facilities. Highlights the additional workload the provision of these services involves, and the sometimes unrealistic expectations of users especially with regard to Internet resources

    Abstract
    Describes the variety of search services supporting library reference functions offered by the RLG in the USA. The best known of these is RLIN, the massive bibliographic database and related services originally developed for shared cataloguing. In the last few years RLG has added CitaDel, an online search system that provides access to indexing/abstracting databases; and Zephyr, a Z39.50 server that amkes the RLIN and CitaDel databases searchable through a library's online catalogue. RLG also offers document delivery connections, including Ariel and Internet based document delivery software, for a full complement of online reference support for academic and public libraries

    Abstract
    Report of a survey 96 (out of 119) US and Canadian member libraries of the Association of Research Libraries (ARL) to determine their use of on-line and CD-ROM data bases, including OPACs. 4 catalogues were identified: on-line mediated searching (97%); CD-ROMs (96%); end-user on-line searching (45%); and locally mounted magnetic tapes (37,5%). The latter option is expected to be the most widely used option in the new future. Although CD-ROM caused some migration from on-line, most migration was from printed sources to CD-ROM. Tables show: on-line hosts most used for intermediary on-line searching; on-line data bases most after searched by intermediaries; end user on-line systems offered by most libraries; the 20 most popular CD-ROM data bases; and the 8 magnetic tape data bases accessible on OPACs

    Abstract
    Describes the online end user search service, FirstSearch, provided by OCLC, noting the ways it has developed since its launch in 1991, and the extent of its use in libraries worldwide. Focuses on an important new aspect of the service, the availability of the full text in ASCII format of many of the articles cited in the database, for ordering, viewing and downloading. Also discusses the value of FirstSearch to interloans departments, the costs of the service, enhancements in the searchability of the databases and in the interfaces provided for searching, and the variety of uses to which libraries are putting the service

    Abstract
    Database usage data from a random sample of academic and public libraries in the U.S. and Canada reveals patterns of use in selected types of libraries. Library users in both public and academic libraries tend to use commercial online databases most frequently early in the week, mid-day, and at times that correspond to the academic calendar (November in this six-month sample.) The mean number of simultaneous users is correlated with the size of the population served and the number of workstations available, but relatively low numbers of users are simultaneously logged on to research databases at all sizes of libraries. A questionnaire sent to these same libraries identified many other factors that might influence database use, including levels of instruction, availability of remote login, placement of a database on the library's homepage, although none of these factors was found to be statistically significant

    Abstract
    The only monitoring of educators is performed by their internal sense of right and wrong. Following the aggred terms of system contracts, selecting the most appropriate systems for students, keeping up to date with system features, and instilling ethical behaviour in students are at the core of ethics for online educators

    Abstract
    Reports on a survey of electronic reference sources and their impact on the work of reference librarians. Reference librarians in university libraries in the Association of Research Libraries (ARL) in the USA were asked to comment on how the library's use of such sources has changed over the past 2 to 3 years and how the work of reference staff has changed. The themes highlighted by the survey include changes in user instructions; the impact of technology; the rising expectations of users; and 'technostress'

    Abstract
    Looks to the future of traditional online services, in light of the rising use of the WWW, which brings authors or publishers and readers directly together, without the intermediary role played by online vendors. Gives examples of changes in ownership of online services in the last half of 1997, and notes that the changes all suggest that online vendors must nkow their best markets and stick to them. Concludes that many online vendors will survive but in ne configurations and often with new owners

    Abstract
    Outlines 3 generations of online searching: to 1981, when personal computers became ubiquitous, when searching was done from dumb terminals by intermediaries; from 1982 to 1991, when through the use of the PC, faster transmission speeds and the advent of ASCII full text, specialized end users joined intermediaries in the exploitation of online; and a generation characterized by multimedia PCs, higher transmission speeds, ASCII and 'image' full text databases, the invlovement of the general end user. Reviews the evolution of these 3 generations in 4 specific areas: content/databases; people and organizations involved; the places people search; motives for using online; and search engines and interfaces used

    Footnote
    Novice end users were given 2 hours of training in searching a full-text magazine database (Magazine ASAP(TM)) on DIALOG. Subjects searched during 3 to 4 sessions in the presence of a trained monitor who prompted them to think aloud throughout the sessions. qualitative analysis of the transcripts and transaction logs yielded empirical information on user variables (purpose, motivation, satisfaction), uses of the database, move types, and every question users asked during the searches. The spontaneous, naturalistic questions were categorized according to affective, cognitive, and sensorimotor speech acts. Results show that most of the searches were performed for the self and were work related. The most common use of the database was to retrieve full-text articles online and to download and print them out rather than read them on screen. The majority of searches were judged satisfactory. Innovative uses included browsing for background information and obtaining contextualized sentences for language teaching. Searchers made twice as many moves to limit sets as moves to expand sets. Affective questions outnumbered cognitive and sensorimotor questions by two to one. This preponderance of affective micro-information needs during searching might be addressed by new system functions

    Abstract
    Online offers the advantage over CD-ROM and locally loaded databases of being able to search several databases simultaneously. However, even when different databases have common fields, they may be named differently. This is improving, particularly throught he efforts of Mead Data Central and DIALOG. Discusses searching single databases; 2 ways in which online systems standardise fields; the lack of standardisation in the field tag SF=; Dialog's standardisation; generic field designs; standardisation of field content and NEXIS and uniform segmentation

    Abstract
    As end users perform their own searches, more insight into their searching behaviour is needed. Identifies and describes the strategies, assessments and affective behaviours from the transcripts and keystroke records collected during 3 searches. The affective behaviours exhibited by the searchers show the involvement of other than cognitive activities in this intellectual pursuit. Particularly interesting is the single mindedness of the search strategies. Describes the searchers' online assessments of the usefulness of retrieved records including assessment strategies that were developed

    Abstract
    Discusses the rapid increase in the availability of the full text of journals, newspapers, documents and books, online and in CD-ROM, in the recent past, noting that full text now makes up 49% of word oriented databases. Explains the differences between image files, ASCII fullt text which is searchable, and ASCII full text which is displayable and downloadable but not searchable, and gives examples of these. Highlights the full text databases which are being introduced by the H.W. Wilson Company
