A circulation system uses plastic embossed user cards, an addressograph electric imprinter, a copy of the catalog card as a book card, and a pocket imprinted by the user's card and holding the book card during circulation. (LS)

The MARC system which is available today must be the forerunner of a more comprehensive, interactive system of shared bibliographic information. (Author/NH)

Describes the applications, management, and design techniques of a mechanized library system in use at the National Center for Atmospheric Research. Fourteen references are listed. (FM)

Binding specifications are maintained on embossed plastic plates, one plate for each title bound. All binding instructions are imprinted from the plate to a set of forms. The system saves time, reduces errors, is flexible and inexpensive. A computer-assisted system produces claim letters and a claims status report. (Author/NH)

The automated Experimental Library Management System (ELMS) in use at the IBM Los Gatos Laboratory has proved to offer unique advantages in fulfilling the reference function. All records of the library, including complete bibliographic descriptions, order information and circulation status, are available at the librarian's fingertips at the…

This annotated bibliography is an outgrowth of a course in technical processes offered at the Graduate School of Library Science, Drexel University. The need for an up-to-date collection of materials dealing with the various aspects of technical services prompted the development of this list of readings. (165 references) (Author/NH)

The Georgia Tech Architecture Library slide collection is being revolutionized by adapting the Santa Cruz Slide Classification System. The slide catalog record is being transferred inexpensively to tapes and updated by the computer. Computer programs print out indexes in any of fifteen different sort fields. (Author)

An integrated library record-keeping system introduced ten years ago is still viable. Unanticipated fringe benefits have been interspersed with an occasional unanticipated faux pas. Computer costs, equipment requirements, and the possibilities for the future are covered. (2 references) (Author)

A general discussion of on-line procedures, batch and real-time updating, types of files and indexes, terminals, and the use of a general-purpose data management system as a vehicle for on-line operation is followed by an Appendix giving detailed information on each on the known systems.

A system for automated cataloging of technical reports was established during 1971. The twice-per-month output is an updated book catalog, an announcement bulletin, demand bibliographies, and an SDI notification system. Benefits include a 600 percent increase in report usage and a 10 percent decrease in catalog maintenance. (Author/NH)

250,000 volumes were converted from Dewey to LC by the on-line Administrative Terminal System (ATS) within seven months at Western Kentucky University Library. In turn, new catalog cards, Hollerith book cards, pockets, labels, bibliographies, and catalogs were produced by the automated ATS system. (6 references) (Author/DH)
