Future library network automation

Michael Cooke

Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1977, vol. 28, issue 5, 254-258

Abstract: This article suggests possible new directions towards solving some of the problems which detract from the current computerized cooperative library networks. The author deals with three main problems: varying levels of bibliographic needs; lack of integration of all library technical processing in automated systems; existing computer network architecture bottlenecks and costs. The ideas presented use distributed data and distributed computing to support the network and introduce a tiered system of bibliographic activity to optimize the benefits of cooperation.
