Niles, Ann – College and Research Libraries, 1981
Suggests that libraries abandon full cataloging in favor of indexing, using the information provided by micropublishers. While a national index to the contents of microforms would be best, an alternative for local libraries would be to create their own COM (computer output microfilm) index. Twenty references are included. (Author/RAA)
