Introducing automation in a college library: Data Trek at the College for the Distributive Trades
Abstract
The College for the Distributive Trades library took a gamble in the Summer of 1987 and chose an automated library system that had never been tested in the UK although it was being used widely in the United States and in the Republic of Ireland. The system selected was the Data Trek Card Datalog system . It was installed on the College's main site at Leicester Square, London a year ago and this article shares the College's experience of the planning, installation and management of this system.
