K. Harrison
Deplores the apparent ignorance of English and other literatures displayed by many library staff. Early public librarians showed a great awareness of classical books and authors, but a century ago technical problems supplanted literary articles in the library press. In 1927 R.D. McLeod founded The Library Review. This, and other journals, prompted a reappearance of bookish librarians. But when library schools began to flourish, literary history disappeared from the Library Association syllabus and is no longer taught in the schools. This has led to the emergence of library science at the cost of literary knowledge. Claims it is time for a change.

Surveys the evolution and development of MARC formats for the digital encoding of bibliographic data from their beginnings in 1968 at the Library of Congress to the present time, with particular emphasis on the development of 17 national formats. Examines the reasons for the divergence of MARC formats from each other as well as the early and recent trends in the development of national MARC formats.

F. Slack
Examines the development of online public access catalogs of the last 15 years and how this has promoted the use of automated information retrieval systems. Investigates how end‐users use the system available to them and the type of subject searches which they carry out. Compares two techniques for mapping searches. Concludes that there is a need for effective diagnosis and monitoring methods and an efficient method of analysis of end‐user use is essential.

Describes the advantages and disadvantages of a program information file (PIF) for the DOS CAT ME Plus (Cataloguing Micro Enhancer) in an MS Windows microcomputer. Examines the literature in this area and goes on to describe the experiences at The University of California, Riverside. Discusses the limitations of the system but concludes that the PIF system is well worth installing.
