Bibliographic Networks and Microcomputer Applications for Aerospace and Defense Scientific and Technical Information.
Abstract
Bibliographic networks provide the means for sharing information resources among geographically dispersed libraries. As part of a bibliographic network, a single library can access a wide variety of bibliographic information, participate in shared cataloging, and acquire holdings (purchase or loan). this paper describes the functions and operations of libraries supporting aerospace and defense scientific and technical work, the environment and characteristics of bibliographic networks, and the automated system capabilities required for network participation. A exploiting bibliographic network resources is included. An automated system being developed for U.S. Department of Defense technical libraries is described. This system integrates local library functions with capabilities for accessing bibliographic network resources, both government and commercial.
