    Abstract
    Describes the successful creation of a computerized ready reference file, at the reference desk at California State University at Long Beach, consisting of some of the most frequently asked reference questions. The original ready reference file was on 3 by 5 cards and the project to computerize the file was constrained by time necessitating the use of dBase 3 Plus database management software as the only such software immediately to hand. The system is easy to use and maintain, and uses dBase 3 Plus or dBase 4 software

    Abstract
    Describes the concise user surveys deployed at the library of Texas A&M University to elicit user feedback on the 'tiered' (i.e. as provided in different areas, information desk, reference desk, database room) reference service. Discusses how the data from the surveys was analyzed and the results found. Notes the ways in which the service has been modified to better meet customers' expectations, as a result of the surveys

    Abstract
    WorldCat, OCLC's bibliographic database, identifies books and the libraries that hold them. The holdings provide detailed information about the type and number of libraries that have acquired the material. Using this information, it is possible to infer the type of audience for which the material is intended. A quantitative measure, the audience level, is derived from the types of libraries that have selected the resource. The audience level can be used to refine discovery, analyze collections, advise readers, and enhance reference services.

    Abstract
    Briefly describes the form and function of Cutter numbers in the classification of books and describes the CUTT-x expert system for the automatic assignment of Cutter numbers with particular reference to the 3 basic elements in the system: knowledge base; inference engine; and user interface. The system was designed, tested and implemented in the Library of the International Civil Aviation Organization and was developed using the MS Access relational database management system in a Windows environment

    Abstract
    Traces the development of distance education programmes which has been fuelled by the non-traditional student, the growth of the Internet, television and videoconferencing. Key elements of library services for distance education are: reference services, a portfolio of nearby libraries or other resources, document delivery, provision of a broad suite of electronic databases, electronic journals, a database of subject specialists, and use of electronic resources on the WWW

    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
    We present a declarative language for the construction of hypertext views on databases. The language is based on an object-oriented data model and a simple hypertext model with reference and inclusion links. A hypertext view specification consists in a collection of parameterized node schemes which specify how to construct node and links instances from the database contents. We show how this language can express different issues in hypertext view design. These include: the direct mapping of objects to nodes; the construction of complex nodes based on sets of objects; the representation of polymorphic sets of objects; and the representation of tree and graph structures. We have defined sublanguages corresponding to particular database models (relational, semantic, object-oriented) and implemented tools to generate Web views for these database models

    Abstract
    Wordmanship is a humorous dictionary cum index. Analyzing its structure, considers general aspects of the design of a reference work in relation to its index. Indexers should be consulted at the design stage of reference books, as they may suggest reversal of the primary entries, and the index entries; refine the cross-reference-structure; revise locator notation; and select appropriate typography

    Abstract
    Work is underway by Stalker and Murfin to develop a database of reference information and materials to help referecne librarians identify andswering sources for reference questions. In the process of this work, they found that traditional approaches to this database did not provide a consistently efficient method of gaining access to sources that would answer a perticular reference question. They noted that FAQs have become a major navigating tool on the Internet; a perliminary investigation was done to determine whether FAQs might provide a more consistently successful method of accessing reference knowledge and reference materials. A preliminary study was done of 20 challenging questions on the subject of American government, politics, elections, and law. The purpose was to make a preliminary estimate of how well a limited number of FAQs could represent the variety of patron questions that might be encountered in a subject area. It was concluded that FAQs might be a promising avenue of further research and development

    Abstract
    Non-academic questions regarding special services, phone numbers, web-sites, library policies, current procedures, technical notices, and other pertinent local institutional information are often asked at the academic library reference desk. These frequent and urgent information requests require tools and resources to answer efficiently. Although ready reference collections at the desk provide a tool for academic information, specialized local information resources are more difficult to create and maintain. As reference desk responsibilities become increasingly complex and communication becomes more problematic, a web database to collect and manage this non-academic, local information can be very useful. At the Oregon State University, librarians in the Reference Services Management group created a custom-designed web-log bulletin board to deal with this non-academic, local information. The resulting database provides reference librarians a one-stop location for the information and makes it easier for them to update the information, via email, as conditions, procedures, and information needs change in their busy, highly computerized information commons.

    Abstract
    Sourcefinder (SOFI) is an expert system consisting of a database of annotated reference sources, uisng the Nota Bene software, which serves as a support for reference services at the reference desk of the Main Library at Ohio State University. SOFI is used by new reference librarians as a trainign aid, by experienced librarians in unfamiliar subject areas and has the potential to be used at times and places where reference librarians are unavailable. More direct access to reference knowledge is provided ny means of a series of question units on a variety of subjects, where instructions, last resort suggestions, and sources are arranged in the form of types of reference questions. Reports results of a study to test the SOFI question units against the libraries' catalogue, OSCAR, in its ability to convert raw reference questions into subjects and to match that subject with the library's resources. Reference questions were selected and the results obtained by students compared with those obtained by experienced reference librarians. The 8 questions involved: cities; foreign languages; dates and chronologies; money and finance; government officials; testa and assessment; associations; and abbreviations. Point to ways in which SOFI might be improved in the light of this study and suggests the possibility of making SOFI available on the WWW

    Abstract
    The Integrative Level Classification (ILC) research project is experimenting with a knowledge organization system based on phenomena rather than disciplines. Each phenomenon has a constant notation, which can be combined with that of any other phenomenon in a freely faceted structure. Citation order can express differential focality of the facets. Very specific subjects can have long classmarks, although their complexity is reduced by various devices. Freely faceted classification is being tested by indexing a corpus of about 3300 papers in the interdisciplinary domain of bioacoustics. The subjects of these papers often include phenomena from a wide variety of integrative levels (mechanical waves, animals, behaviour, vessels, fishing, law, ...) as well as information about the methods of study, as predicted in the León Manifesto. The archive is recorded in a MySQL database, and can be fed and searched through PHP Web interfaces. Indexer's work is made easier by mechanisms that suggest possible classes on the basis of matching title words with terms in the ILC schedules, and synthesize automatically the verbal caption corresponding to the classmark being edited. Users can search the archive by selecting and combining values in each facet. Search refinement should be improved, especially for the cases where no record, or too many records, match the faceted query. However, experience is being gained progressively, showing that freely faceted classification by phenomena, theories, and methods is feasible and successfully working.
