The paper reviews current rehabilitation databases and discusses ways in which they may be used to enhance the rehabilitation process. Their use decreases by 80% or more the time usually needed to manually develop rehabilitation-related data. A table presents questions that can be asked in selecting a prospective database, including whether the information is accessible to persons of varying ability, interest, and experience. Ways in which such databases can be used to enhance evaluation, training programs, placement, and counseling of clients are outlined in four additonal tables. (CL)
