    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
    Confirms the accuracy of a prediction 4 years ago that the CD-ROM graphic interfaces then available would be rivalled in online. Many Web based services now outperform CD-ROM models and magazine pages often look better on the Web than on CD-ROM. Desirable, but not widely available, is the facility to download data from CD-ROM databases. The best CD-ROM authority and retrieval software packages with impressible capabilities remain expensive but there are reasonably priced alternatives for Web publishing and database searching, many of which are derived from CD-ROM originals. A new software development which allows replication of Web sites on CD-ROM will feature in articles in future issues of 'Information today'

    Abstract
    1997 saw fierce competition among the publishers of print, CD-ROM and online telephone directories in the USA. Considers whether it is worth buying any white pages CD-ROM now that such information is freely available over the Internet. compares 3 versions of the white pages information based on American Business Information (ABI) data: American Directory Assistance (Http://www.lookupusa.com); InfoSpace (http://www.infospace.com); and the 7-disc CD-ROM database PhoneSearch 3.0. Concludes that for casual use such as looking up names, the Web databases are much more efficient. The CD-ROM version may be better for those who regularly want to compile mailing lists and phone lists to target a district

    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

    Users with unlimited Web access can now access a wide range of reference materials and consumer guides thus avoiding the expense of buying them on CD-ROMs. Nevertheless, some CD-ROMs provide significant extras to Web products.
