    Abstract
    Reports on the Southern California Online Users Group annual workshop, which broke all previous attendance records. The topic was 'Radical redesign of reference and research', and common threads among speakers included the need for a new reference/research model that will scale with future needs, and the now common standard of round the clock service availability. Print could become a secondary medium to digital data, primarily delivered over the Internet, and that information vendors be forced to change pricing structures. Librarians from public, corporate, and academic sectors have begun building Web sites around links to their own data and to other quality sites as a means of providing 24 hour services. Vendors might consider creating new price comparison services, or offering proce guarantees, to compete with this new phenomenon

    Abstract
    Discusses the potential threat of the WWW to traditional information services. Client-server and/or networks have eliminated the need for centralized mainframe data centres. At the same time the proprietary nature of traditional information services becomes problematic for Internet based users. Some of the traditional services maintain Web sites, but the content available through these sites is limited. Considers the quality of Web based data. Some industry leaders expect the Web to fail. However, much of the Web content is unique and reliable. The traditional online industry should learn to play by new rules
