    Abstract
    Overview of product development among Web search engines. They all went through a language acquisition phase in the past 2 years at an accelerated pace, with results that even the largest traditional services would envy. Spotlights some of the best features, including AltaVista's honouring of upper case and assumption of adjacency; InfoSeek's ability to place reviewed sites at the top of a results list, and its automatic pluralization and singularization; Northern Light's user controlled single and multiple character truncation; Excite's ability to group and ungroup results; HotBot's option to limit a search to specific major disciplines; and Lycos Pro's user controlled ranking of search results. Web searching has never been a more intuitive or user friendly process

    Abstract
    Reviews the CD-ROM and online database version of the abstracting and indexing service LISA. Highlights a few limitations of content of the records, and traces recent changes. The CD-ROM version offers a powerful, advanced version of Bowker search software. The online version is available on Dialog, but some of its power search features are not available on LISA. The CD-ROM is preferable to the online version because of its better browsing and display options and also because, unusually, it was more current

    Abstract
    Reviews PsycLIT from the American Psychological Association on the KnowledgeFinder CD-ROM version from the Aries Systemc Corporation. Focuses on its natural language search capability which can handle informal queries. Searches can be optimised for precisiion and recall using a slide bar, and the number of results may be maximised. The search system work by multilayered, weighted scoring of each term in the records. It assigns scores based on the frequency and position of the terms in the records and the uniqueness of the terms in the entire database

    Abstract
    Reports the growing trend among database producers to release the same CD-ROM database on more than 1 proprietary system (SilverPlatter, CD PLUS etc.) and stresses the fact that the different search and display software that each host brings to the database can make a very real difference to the databases' characterisitcs. Suggests that potential users of a particular database should shed all preconceptions and treat each host's version of the database as completey different databases

    Abstract
    Northern Light is part WWW search engine and part full text database. The latter is called Special Collection and consists of fulltext articles from 1.800 journals, newswires and other resources. Searching, bibliographic information and summaries are free but with prices per article ranging from $1 to $4 of a monthly subscription for 50 documents from a 880 journal subset. Highlights weaknesses with the software

    Abstract
    Smart retrieval software can have more impact on response time than a faster CD-ROM drive. This can be shown easily now that more commerical databases are being released in several versions with practically identical content but different software. Illustrates this with 3 versions of the PAIS database, comparing the original OCSI, SPIRS software, and EBSCO software. Whereas the OCSI version took no more than a few seconds, the other 2 versions took around 10times longer, occasionally in the order of minutes. Considers how the construction of these products can account for such speed differences. However, search facilities and other features should be considered as well as speed. Offers advice for testing retrieval software

    Abstract
    A detailed description of how to use Java applets and Common Gateway Interface (CGI)/Dynamic Link Library (DLL) programs for Web publication of textual databases. The advantages of Java applets include low cost, flexible and visually appealing search interfaces, and the ability to be embedded in HTML pages, eliminating the need for Internet service provider permissions for their use. Highlights the FindIt family of Java applets from DoubleOLogic as one of the best product lines in the category. CGI programs may be written in Perl, Java, or some other language, and like DLL programs, must be installed on the server side. Notes that small-scale CGI and DLL applications cost from $150 to $8,000. Highlights Insight from Enigma Inc. as an excellent program at the high end of the cost range
