Agriculture, food and biosciences information from SilverPlatter

Abstract

SilverPlatter, a major publisher on CD‐ROM, expects to offer over 100 titles on this medium by the end of 1992. Agriculture, Food and related Biosciences products account for almost 20% of this total. Close to one thousand major agricultural libraries and information centres around the world currently use these products. This paper first presents SilverPlatter: its objectives as an information publisher/distributor and the services it offers. It goes on to review SilverPlatter's agriculture related products, and closes with a look at the future in terms of both products and technology.
