MECHANIZATION STUDY OF THE LIBRARY U. S. NAVAL POSTGRADUATE SCHOOL, MONTEREY, CALIFORNIA

Abstract

A mechanized system is used by the Naval Postgraduate School Library for bibliographic control of its technical documents collection. Descriptive and subject cataloging information is stored on magnetic tape, and literature searches are made. The program used, called SABIR2, is written in assembly language for the CDC 1604 computer. Automatic data processing equipment is also used to produce title and subject lists of the Library's holdings of periodicals. The Library is satisfied with the mechanized system with regard to retrieval relevancy, recall, and usefulness of the end product.
