NRCd, word processors and the information industry
Abstract
The National Reprographic Centre for documentation was formed in 1967 to examine the value of microform systems to members of the library community. In the summer of 1979 the Centre installed a word processing system in order to see how useful this new technology might prove to be in similar environments. NRCd has investigated three applications which may prove to be valuable to special librarians: the relationship between word processors and other reprographic devices, notably photo‐typesetting machines and COM recorders; the automation of certain housekeeping tasks and the mechanisation of information retrieval on a small scale.
