    Abstract
    Reviews the current market for CD-ROM databases with particular reference to the online versus CD-ROM versus print debate. Concludes that the most likely scenario is a steady convergence of technologies, at least until the end of the century. Review the current and the most likely future developments in the area of CD-ROM database contents, software, hardware, and marketing. Concludes that users will choose databases on the basis of such factors as: ease of use; power of use; storage and delivery capacity; quality; functionaliy; timeliness; overall appeal; and real cost, not just price. Lists the most likely candidates for successful CD-ROM database development; not yet available. Concludes that Windows user faces will steadily replace DOS based systems, but not unless the Windows replacements are truly better and not just different. Recommends that both Windows and DOS interfaces be loaded onto the same CD-ROM with each database allowing the user to choose which to use. Reviews likely developments in CD-ROM hardware and marketing strategies

    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
    State of the art review of the criteria used to judge and evaluate the quality of databases, including: content, ease of use, accessibility, customer support, documentation, and value to cost ratio. Concludes that the principle factor governing quality is content, defined by the scope and the coverage of the database and its currency, accuracy, consistency and completeness. Scope is determined by its composition and coverage, including time period, number of periodicals and other primary sources, number of articles and geographic and language distribution. Currency is measured by the time lag between publication of the primary source and availability of the corresponding records in the database. Accuracy is governed by the extent to which the records are free from errors of all types. Consistency depends on the extent to which records within the database follow the same rules. Completeness is measured by the consistency with which applicable data elements are assigned to all the records in the database. Reviews the major contributions to the literature in the field and summarizes the background of milestone studies

    Abstract
    Recommends for libraries the use of some of the features of HTML 3.2 as the least expensive and sometimes the only feasible approach to making an existing database available on the Web, referring to the Scholarly Electronic Publishing Bibliography as an excellent illustration of what can be achieved. Describes how to apply HTML using the example of a Web prototype of an abstracting and indexing database of 12 volumes of 'Processes in Hawaii', created as part of a course in library and information science at the University of Hawaii. Explains the choosing of primary access points, linking, anchoring references to make the browser jump and show the exact section of the document where a name or term appears, and framing to retain displays simultaneously on the screen

    Abstract
    Discusses the arrival of DVD-Video drives, which are designed for the play of full screen, full length motion pictures over a television. It looks similar to a CD-ROM, though the disc contains over 7 times the data of CD-ROM, plus provides broadcast quality playback for a quality superior to that of either VHS or video disc. There were originally no DVD movie titles available until 3 weeks after the release of the first palyers, and they are still very slow to reach the market. DVD-ROM, the computer based relative of the video DVD, could become a competitor for CD-ROM. However, DVD-ROM's similarities to DVD-Video cause confusion, and paired with its high price may stall its acceptance in the PC markets

    Abstract
    Reviews 3 multimedia CD-ROM Atlases: Microsoft's Encarta Virtual Globe (http://encarta.msn.com); Rand McNally's New Millennium World Atlas (http://www.randmenally.com); and Creative Wonders' 3D Atlas '98 (http://www.3datlas.com) and compare them to printed and online atlases. All three CD-ROM atlases offer a variety of maps from topographical to political to statistical and all 3 map collections can be integrated into atlases. Describes the map personalization features, statistical data available and the many textual and multimedia enhancements of the CD-ROMs. All of them also have links from the CD-ROM to their Web sites for updating

    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
    The 1st of 3 articles discussing the reasons why Web database publishing is a growing trend and the options available for moving databases from desktops to the Web. Reasons concern accessibility, paper saving, distribution costs and the desire to reduce reliance on traditional database publishers. Advises on various types of database management programs which provide for HTML output, and their applications to, e.g. library acquisitions and bibliographies. Distinguishes between server-side and user-side extensions and reviews a number of relevant products

    Abstract
    Discusses the merits of DVD-ROM as a medium for the storage of large quantities of text, numeric, and multimedia data. Focuses on the performance of DVD-ROM, including transfer rates, access time, and storage capacity. DVD-ROM provides a 4,7 GB storage capacity with transfer rates equivalent to a CD-ROM's 20x or 24x, or 3 MB/sec to 3,6 MB/sec, and access times of between 150 and 220 ms. DVD-ROM could become a viable alternative to CD-ROM if the MPEG-2 and Dolby AC3 decoder became options, significantly reducing the cost of the base drive for those whose information storage needs do not require them. Compares image quality, product, and price of CD-ROM and DVD-ROM. DVD-ROM would be a good solution for publishers of multi-volume CD-ROM titles
