    Abstract
    The proliferation of information has placed pressure on librarians to assist library patrons to use information efficiently. Ohio State University libraries have developed a microcomputer program that enables library users to identify, locate, evaluate and select information independently, regardless of format. The gateway's evaluations demonstrate that it is an effective and user-friendly information tool for a wide range of library patrons. The gateway is now available on all of the libraries' terminals

    The major attractions of building a Web based reference information system are described: software is virtually 'free'; required training is minimal; systems can be accessed by a variety of platforms; and reference librarians around the world are able to share their expertise. Discusses these points in the context of the evolution of reference information file systems and describes a prototype to show how to construct a basic Web based system

    Abstract
    In this paper, we introduce a class of systems called Information Management Assistants (IMAs). IMAs automatically discover related material on behalf of the user by serving as an intermediary between the user and information retrieval systems. IMAs observe users interact with everyday applications and then anticipate their information needs using a model of the task at hand. IMAs then automatically fulfill these needs using the text of the document the user is manipulating and a knowledge of how to form queries to traditional information retrieval systems (e.g., Internet search engines, abstract databases, etc.). IMAs automatically query information systems on behalf of users as well as provide an interface by which the user can pose queries explicitly. Because IMAs are aware of the user's task, they can augment their explicit query with terms representative of the context of this task. In this way, IMAs provide a framework for bringing implicit task context to bear on servicing explicit information requests, significantly reducing ambiguity. IMAs embody a just-in-time information infrastructure in which information is brought to users as they need it, without requiring explicit requests. In this paper, we present our work on an architecture for this class of system, and our progress implementing Watson, a prototype of such a system. Watson observes users in word processing and Web browsing applications and uses a simple model of the user's tasks, knowledge of term importance, and an understanding of query generation to find relevant documents and service explicit queries. We close by discussing our experimental evaluations of the system

    Abstract
    Reports the results of a questionnaire survey of 414 libraries in 4 categories: academic libraries; school libraries; public libraries and special libraries; to assess the status of library training initiatives with respect to the libraries' OPACs. Answers were sought to 3 questions: how have libraries modifoed OPAC software; have libraries developed any instructional methods for teaching the use of OPACs; and to what extent are online catalogues self instructional? Results show that most participants' libraries have modofied library OPAC software; librarians continue to teach use of the online catalogue, depending heavily on handouts; few systems have built-in tutorials for users; and very fes have developed computer assisted instruction for the OPAC

    Abstract
    Extension of earlier studies of the way reference librarians work were pooled to provide an understanding of the important features necessary in software that function as intelligent agents and expert systems for computerized reference work. Presents the technical implications of these studies as a set of 9 design principles for agent technology and discusses only the technical issues that were specifically raised by the studies of librarians and users

    Abstract
    Provides an overview of the concept of a campus-wide information system (CWIS), focusing on the use of Gopher software to provide distributed information access. Suggests an administrative paradigm for such a system that stresses cooperation between various campus entities and emphazises the need for the library, academic computing, and administration to rationally divide resposibilities. Discusses some of the possible sociological effects of the CWIS including the impact on the traditional university culture

    Abstract
    Electronic services librarianship has become a new position in many libraries to deal with the new services generated from the emerging technologies. In this article, the authors define this position and discuss reasons for it. Both sides of the issue are analyzed: that of the traditional librarian, whose expectations for this new staff line to bridge the gap between the library systems unit and the nontechnical library staff are high; and that of the library systems professional, who is more concerned about the library lifeline, OPAC. Electronic/network services librarians must get their work done without overstepping their boundaries. Nevertheless, this new professional is able to bring emerging technologies and applications to librarians, staff and users. This article describes problems and suggests solutions for the hiring process and the position's place in the organizational structure. A set of tips for the electronic services librarian to survive and thrive in the bureaucracy is also presented

    Abstract
    Reports results of an evaluation of 2 expert systems designed for use in library reference services: ReferenceExpert (RE), developed by Houston University; and SourceFinder (SF), developed by Illinois University at Urbana-Champaign. The test group consisted of 60 graduate students at the initial stage of an intermediate level reference course. The evaluation involved test questions already used in an earlier study (College and research libraries 52(1991) no.5, S.454-465). Results indicated that: there was no significant difference between RE and SF students in the confidence they expressed regarding understanding of their test questions; no significant correlation was found between confidence in understanding the question and success in selecting appropriate sources; only 1/5 of the students agreed that the system they used could be considered 'intelligent'; the majority did not consider the system they used to be 'competent'; almost half agreed that the subject categories provided by the menus were too broad; a little more than half wer not satisfied with the information sources selected by their system; significantly more RE users than SF users agreed that they found the menu interface useful; and a keyword search capability was the feature most often mentioned as a needed system enhancement. Overall results indicated that current expert systems for the selection of reference sources cannot perform as well as experienced subject oriented reference librarians

    Abstract
    Describes the variety of search services supporting library reference functions offered by the RLG in the USA. The best known of these is RLIN, the massive bibliographic database and related services originally developed for shared cataloguing. In the last few years RLG has added CitaDel, an online search system that provides access to indexing/abstracting databases; and Zephyr, a Z39.50 server that amkes the RLIN and CitaDel databases searchable through a library's online catalogue. RLG also offers document delivery connections, including Ariel and Internet based document delivery software, for a full complement of online reference support for academic and public libraries
