Ebersole, Joseph L. – 1970
Improvements in the technology associated with the information sciences will have their primary potential impact on the distribution of costs, information flow level, information availability, and use among information channels. This improvement implied not only a capability to perform a given function, but a lower cost. For example, the trend…

Cady, Glee; And Others – 1970
The scope of a manual-automated system serving the 40 libraries and the teaching and research community of Stanford University is defined. Also defined are the library operations to be supported and the bibliographic information storage and retrieval capabilities to be provided in the system. Two major projects have been working jointly on library…

Glantz, Richard S. – 1970
Until recently, the emphasis in information storage and retrieval systems has been towards batch-processing of large files. In contrast, SHOEBOX is designed for the unformatted, personal file collection of the computer-naive individual. Operating through display terminals in a time-sharing, interactive environment on the IBM 360, the user can…
