Henry, Nicholas L. – Science, 1974
Discusses the dilemmas created by photocopying, computing, and other neopulishing technologies in the light of existing copyright laws, analyzes the costs and benefits of computer-based information storage and retrieval systems and photocopying technologies, and suggests guidelines for developing future public policy. (JR)

Fernau, Curt N. – Labour Education, 1983
Knowing how to store documents for easy retrieval can be an art, but it can be learned. Just as a computer is only as good as the information and program which is fed into it, a filing system's value depends on the logic with which it was planned to respond to certain needs. (Author/SSH)

Rusch, Peter F. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1981
Reveals how chemical information in the form of descriptions of the chemical literature and chemical substances can be encoded as digital representations, then manipulated by computers to assist with collection, formatting, and distribution. Explains how computer-based search techniques are used to search databases that supplement traditional…

Vratny-Watts, Janet; Valauskas, Edward J. – Information Technology and Libraries, 1989
Discusses the technological changes that will necessitate the prospective conversion of library data over the next decade and addresses the problems of converting data from obsolete personal computers to newer models that feature radically different operating systems. Three case studies are used to illustrate possible scenarios. (11 references)…

Grimson, J. B.; Stacey, G. M. – Information Storage and Retrieval, 1974
Two different directory structuring techniques--division hash technique and a hydrid technique--are compared for the same set of keys with directories of from 10,000 to 100,000 unique keys. Retrieval costs, in terms of the number of accesses of secondary storage required to retrieve the keys, are considered in detail. (Author)

Parker, Edwin B. – 1970
The third annual report (covering the 18-month period from January 1969 to June 1970) of the Stanford Physics Information REtrieval System (SPIRES) project, which is developing an augmented bibliographic retrieval capability, is presented in this document. A first section describes the background of the project and its association with Project…

Radhakrishnan, T.; Venkatesh, K. – Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1978
An earlier model which proposed to determine the optimum number of shelves to minimize shelving cost of a book collection does not always yield optimal value. Underlying assumptions from this earlier model, which aren't always practical, are discussed, and algorithms providing a better solution for the same problem are presented. (Author)

Gorman, Michael – Library Hi Tech, 1987
Discussion of the drawbacks of remote storage and microforms as solutions to library storage and retrieval problems covers the advantages and disadvantages of moveable compact shelving, i.e., electrically-powered shelving which eliminates all but one aisle in any set of ranges of shelving. This system is recommended as the answer to storage…

Avedon, Don M. – Special Libraries, 1972
The facts about microfilm permanence and archival quality are presented in simple terms. The major factors, including the film base material, the film emulsion, processing, and storage conditions are reviewed. The designations on the edge of the film are explained and a list of refernces provided. (14 references) (Author)
