    Abstract
    A controlled set of searches have been conducted by a group of searchers, at Manchester Polytechnic Library, on a trial subset of the British National Bibliography (BNB) data base on both CD-ROM and on-line. Various measures of search effectiveness and effiency were examined in relation to the effect of the differing user interface, including recall, precision, search time, user satisfaction and other more subjective factors. Discusses the potential for further research on the evaluation of CD-ROM.
