- Abstract
- 3 versions of 2 databases were used as examples for examining indexing, printing/downloading capabilities, and interface design in order to provide the most useful resources to the faculty, staff, and students of Penn State Harrisburg. The databases studied were ABI/Inform and PAIS available using a Z39.50 interface from the library's OPAC, FirstSearch from OCLC, and CD-ROMs from UMI and SilverPlatter
