Spreading CD‐ROM Technology Beyond the Library: Applications for Remote Communications Software

Abstract

Considers the use of Remote Communications Software as a cost‐efficient solution to sharing information with offsite users. Discusses theuse of RCS, typical library applications, and the potential disadvantages of RCS. Concludes that RCS is particularly applicable in making technologies such as CD‐ROM and microcomputer databases available to remote users at a low cost.
