He will convene an initial meetingof the committee in the near future.Revisions to pages 8-12 of the document ,statement onPromotion, Tenure, and Appointments to the Library Faculty atthe university of rllinois at urbana-champaign" were reviewedand approved by the committee with a minor rèvision concern-ing emeritus status.

ïnterlibrary Borrowing Procedures concerning requests theLibrary does not fill in the case of lending inJtitutionswhich assess fees higher than 915.00 per transaction werediscussed. After a review of current procedures, thisissue will be discussed at a forthcoming library facultymeeting.
The filling of currently vacant library faculty positionswas discussed. Ifedgeworth noted that decisions on r¡ays tofill these positions will in large part be dependent ãnbudget actions of the state legislature, which courdpossibly extend into late July.Next meeting: July 5, 1994, 1:30 p.n., 428 LibraryTom Kilton for Karen Schmidt, Secretary
Collection Deve lopment CommitteeMinutes of the Meetine612V94
Present: M. Balachandran, Bill Brockman, Carl Deal, Deloris Holiman, Betsy Kruger, Martha Landis, Larry Miller,Erin Nagorski, Karen Schmidt, Meredith Smith, Dave Stern, Ellen Sutton, Mitzi Williams, Steve Witt, Joyce Wright.
Announcements: Carl Deal announced that the committee's memo regarding electronic databases was sent to theExecutive Committee which discussed the issues in its last meeting. The Executive Committee agreed that theseissues are important and will discuss them further in the future.
Statement on Cancellation of Unique Serials for Replacement by CD ROM products: Upon review, thecommittee decided to put the Statement on Cancellation of Unique Serials in Library Office Notes with minorrevisions.
Deloris Holiman will also add a statement insuring documentation is made when disks are shipped back in the eventthat the disks are lost in shipping.
Discussion of Approval Plans: The committee decided that Approval Plans need to be discussed further within thedivisions, and ways of soliciting information were discussed and will be developed by the Approval planSubcommittee, Regarding duplication, the consensus of the committee was that it would like to continue to receiveduplicate titles even if another fund has paid for an item.
Budget Update: D. Holiman informed the committee that all state money has been spent and everything is currentlygoing well with the budget.
D. Stern noted that many orders placed in the spring have not come in, making it difFrcult for some fund managersto fully expend this year's monographic allocations. The resulting outstanding orders which arrive in the FYl995monographic allocation are a problem. K. Schmidt recommended that fund managers need to claim orders on aregular basis and review fund printouts regularly to avoid this occurring.
C. Deal said that the Budget Subcommittee made decisions about what needs to be done in the face of a zero budgetincrease. He noted that serial price increases based on the most recent vendor's estimates would probably exceed5%. That will not be known until later in the year. Meanwhile, the University Librarian is not asking fundmanagers to cover more than SVo for serial increases.
Report on Cooperative Collection Management Coordinating Committee Retreat: C. Deal reported that twenty-six libraries participated in the second retreat of the statewide committee. During the retreat, groups were formedto concentrate on the following topics: Electronic Journals, Desigrated Subject Areas for Cooperative CollectionAgreements (Education and Pacific Rim), Governance, Shared Cataloging, Last Copies of Serials, and Cancellationof Serials.
Carl noted that he expressed concern at the CCMCC Meeting that funds for this program not come off the top ofprice increases from the state. He also explained that the subject areas of Education and the Pacific Rim were chosenas ftelds of interest for the whole state. Libraries will be asked to sigr formal agreements to build on strengths thatlie within the chosen areas. He further noted that after ALA each group will have a final plan and in the Fall theywill begin activities.
K. Schmidt added that another facet of the project will be a survey of what subjects are being bonowed from otherinstitutions and a client based market survey of the libraries.
Other: D. Holiman said that she has had many questions regarding how the 1995 budget will be built. Next year'sserials budget will be determined by taking from each fund's recurring base the amount of this year's serialsexpenditures plus 5%. Whatever is remaining in that fund's base will become the monograph budget for FY '95.

Online Catalog Contacts Group Meeting Summary, Juty 5, 1994
1. The change in LCS patron type for courtesy card holders with the status of P3 wasdiscussed. The new patron type, X1, carries similar loan privileges, and is non-fineable. Themain difference between the P3 and the X1 patron types will be the fact that the X1 patrontype does not allow these card holders to charge items from LCS institutions outside UIUC.
2. The distribution of version 4.10 of the IO Plus interface software was completed lastweek. The Psyclnfo database is the newest added feature. Text in the interface reports thatPsyclnfo coverage is from 1986-present. But, Psyclnfo is actually available from 1967-present. The next version of the IO Plus interface (anticipated within the next month) willcorrect this discrepanÇy.
3. AISS Routine programming request deadlines rwere announced and discussed. The AISScomputing center has recently established two deadlines for accepting routine programmingrequests--July 1 and November 15. The most commonly requested programming work bydepartmental libraries includes shelf list information, location code and/or loan periodchanges, adding replacement text for an internal charge number, or having a terminal movedor installed. Sandore indicated that more information would be made available shortly toLibrary staffwho are interested in submitting programming work requests for the November15 deadline.
4. There was a discussion of more effective communication methods for sharing informationand questions about the online system, in addition to the monthly Contacts Group meetings.There was consensus that e-mail, as well as announcements in Library Office Notes wouldbe the most useful vehicles for communication of online system information, especially inurgent situations. Staff who are interested in receiving online system information by e-mailwere asked to send a mail message to [email protected].
5. OtherQuestions were raised about the status of bar-coding within the Library, automatic deletionof saves on books that are coded RLOST on LCS, and the automatic generation ofnotification cards for patrons who have pliaced saves on items that are coded missing onLCS. Sandore will investigate problems associated with lost and missing books and reportthese fìndings at the next meeting.
6. Next meeting: Tuesday, August 2, 7:30 p.m. 428 Library.

CATALOGING POLICY ADVISORY COMMITTEEMinutes of l8 July 1994 Meeting
428 Library, 9:00 a.m.
Present: Arnold Wajenberg (Chair), RichardGorodinsky, Sarah Hoag, Gail Hueting, Jay Lee,Romero, Nancy Romero, Fung-Yin Simpson,Will iams .
Burbank, VictorCarol Penka, Lisa
WeiWei Wang, Jim
I. Announcements:a. Arnold endorsed the LC Catalo¡erts Desktop software
package for use in cataloging. At this tine, however, thestrbject heading rist (not the subject Heading nanual) is notavailable in the software r so catalogers must bear that in nindshould the product be acquired for use any tine soon. Also, theMARC formats used in the software are the LC MARC formats, notthe OCLC MARC formats. The product costs t875 and has costlimitations on how many people can use it simultaneously.Despite the cost, it was felt that this product would save theLibrary money over the long tern, if nounted on a Local AreaNetwork. (Last year the Library spent about $5K on papercataloging tools, and that was considered to have been a lightyear. ) Arnold will contact colleagues at the University ofchicago who now have some experience using the product; he wittreport back on UCts assessment of it.
b. Arnold reninded CPAC menbers of the AUTOCAT nessageconcerning OCLC's validation of "blank" as the second indicator(Book Format ONLY) in fields zoo, 7Lo, 7LL, and 7go (Not 740).The date of implementation will be zg July. cathy salika hasalready addressed FBR urodification to handle tb,is for new dataloading. The new indicator should be used in Books Formatcataloging beginning 1 August.
c. Arnold discussed his retirement, its implications forcPAc, and associated cataloging activities. Arnord's Z}-yearfunction as UIUC's Iiaison to OCLC will be handled by Autonatedservices, at least for the time being. (This responsibilityconsists largely of receiving and distributing OCLC and ILLINETdocumentation. ) CPAC is expected to continue in existence.Disctrssion followed concerning the coordination of thecommittee's continued operations in ArnoId's absence. This topicwill be on the agenda for the August neeting.
II, Cataloging Service Bulletin 64.
Rules 9.5Bl, 9.5Dl: "Computer disc" has been added to theval-j.d GMD terms for a computer fiIe. ("Computer disk" hadalready been validat,ed as a GMD; LC decided the spelIj.ng ''disk"refers to magnetic storage devices, while "disc" refers tooptical storage devices. )
Rule 21.30J: Coding and title added entries for titles ofcollections without collective titles the GMD now comes afterthe f irst title in a string of titles, with the renatning titlesgoing in $b. Title access is affected. With two or threebitles, continue to make a title added entry for each. With fouror more tit,les, make an added entry only for the first. Use 740fields for the second and third titles, and for the entire stringof titles.
RuIe 22,3^: Form of personal name headings, when names varyin full-ness -- accept the form as AACR2 compatible if the forn onthe item being cataloged matches that on existing catalog records( the file against which the cataloging and searching is beingdone). ALWAYS use LCNAF first.
Rule 25.58: Qualifiers for uniform titles of choreographicworks this is a new category of uniforn titles. ALWAYS usethe qualifier "(Choreographic work)" for a subject or addedentry, with the choreographer's surname added as part of thequalifier when the iten represents a particular choreographer'sversion of the work. fn cases of two or nore choreographerssharing responsibility, give names in alphabetical order. Incases of derived choreographic work, follow the choreographer'sname with a comma, followed by the word "after" and the surnaneof the original choreographer. Optionally, if the work is areconstruction of an earlier staged production, include in thequalifier the date of the reconstruction. Exanple: "Afternoonof a faun (Choreographic work : llarkova, ¿fter NijÍnksy : 1935)."
Rule 25.3084: Names of nusical instruments use "violon-cello, " "English horn, " "contrabassoon, " and "tinpani.tt (Abo1-ished here are "cello, " "cor anglais, " "double bassoon, " and"kettle drums. " )
Rule 25.3481: Do not add the date of pubrication ($f) tothe r-tniform title "selections" when this is used for collectionso f mlrs ical works by one composer.
Subject Subdivisions:
Geographic subdivisions have been added for many free-floating subdivisions. The geographical subdivision shouldfollow the topical subdivision instead of couring in front of it.The standard order subject heading string is: Itopicl--[placel--I chronology] -- [ fornl .
Various subject heading subdivision changes were discussed:"Mortuary customs" after "Indians" has becone t'FuneraI customsand rites;" "organization and adninistration after "sports" hasbecome "Management;" "Practicing" after nusical instrunents isnoÍ"r "rnstruct,ion and study. " There was arso e discussion ofsubdivisions replaced by phrases and updated and canceled subdi-visions interested individuals may consult pp. 53-54 of thisCSB for further clarification.
III. ALA Reports
Gail Hueting reported on Subject Access Connittee activitiesat the Miami meeting. Her report centered on LC's repositioningof subdivisions, and LC's planned re-evaluation of its practiceof providing Dewey Decinal classification numberE on bibliograph-ic records. SAC will be establishing a subcomnittee to helpadvise LC on this issue.
ïV. New Business
Jay Lee inquired about cooperative cataloging and associatedi-ssues' which led to a discussion of the 949 FBRREPt comnand.This command will replace an existing FBR record with e differentversion of the ocLC record ( for the same iten) that nay havebetter access points and other headings.

MinutesLIBRARY FACULTY }IEETING
June 17, L994
Robert lJedgeworth called the meeting to order aE 1:37 p.m'
l. Minutes of the l,fay 20 , 1994 meeting rrere apProved as published in LibraryOffice Notes.
¿. University Librarian's RePorE.In his announcements, l.ledgeworth noted that the Union Browsing Room willremain open and that there e¡ere no plans for reviewing its existence--heconsiders ic an integral part of the Universicy Library. The UIUC's proposalfor a digiral library test project aE the Grainger Engineering Library has
been favorably reviewed, and there will be a site visit of the Library nextweek. l^Iedgeworth is cautiously optimistic about the proposal's ProsPects.
I,ledgeworth has completed a response to the 1992 COPE rePort, and the processis nor¡ closed. His review of COPE's recommendations noËed that we hadcompleted a merger into a single faeulty. In xegatd Èo the COPE comments on
emphasizing service, I^Iedgeworth's resPonse emphasized that service willcontinue to be an important component of the Library buÈ Ehat the scholarlyactivity of the faculty and the instructional eomponenE of the Library's workremain very important especially as the Library moves j.nto more new
technologiês. Finally, user services issues from COPE have been addressedthrough Ih" U".r Services Policy Cornmictee. The Provost has reacted favorablyto the response to the COPE rePort.
i.Iork on the Kodak-Folletts photo-CD project continues with a demonstrationphase that lrill use material fron the Rare Book and Special Collectionsii-U."ry. Following the AIA meeting, Kodak and FolleÈts rePresentatives willbe on campus to diãcuss other projãcts to be considered for an R & D proposal.Such projects would probably ernphasize vísual materials. Overall, Ì'Iedgeworth
"""" th.-Kodak-Folletts work as a means of determining what is involved in
setting up a dígital library, especially regarding issues of indexing files,helping users navigate the files, and deterrnining what users wan! '
A request-for-proposal for new software for the online catalog has been issuedwiÈh a July 15 response deadline. The User Serr¡ices Po1icy Corunittee rePorthas been subnirted and will be distributed soon. An acuion plan will be
presented for discussion et the flrst faculty meeting in Septenber'
In response to a question from Al Kagan as to when the sPace consultants'report would be discussed, l.Iedgeworth stated Èhat we were waj-ting until afterthä new Deputy University Librãrian arrives. It would then be reviewed beforean action plan is develoPed.
Executive Com¡nittee Report. On behalf of Elisabeth Davis, Tom KilÈondelivered a reporÈ of the Executive CornmítEee's work. At its most recentneeEing, Èhe Cornrnittee discussed lnterlibrary borrowing practices in caseswhen a UIUC library Patron requests a book from a llbrary that charges more
than our maxi-nr¡n oi $fS. It was agreed that more fact'finding is needed co
determine the extent of such cases. The Corn'nittee discussed currently vacantpositions, but ection must await the StaÈe Legtslature's acÈion on the budget.
Kilton stated that the Cornmittee had reviewed minor revisions to the PTA
docurnent (discussed below) and approved minor changes to Ehe faculcy travelpolicy. l,Iedgeworth stated that the travel policy revisions concerned a change

co pay round-trip airfare and regiscracion fees rather than the currentpractice of paying set amounts based on the level of one's particípation.l.Iilliam Maher asked when Ëhe Èravel policy would be brought to a facultymeeting for discussion. I,.Iedgeworth responded Ehat he did noc see Eravelreimbursement as a matter for Ehe faculty meeting. In response to Maher,ssuggestion that a faculty travel policy, for both inherent and historicalreasons, seemed to be a faculty matter, l.Iedgeworth made the distincEion thatsupPort for faculÈy travel l¡ras a faculty matter, but how reimbursement wascovered was administrative, and the proposal might be reviewed at theAdministrative Council. In response to a question from Frances Jacobson,l^Iedgeworth stated that the proposed reimbursement for transportation andregistration would be for one meeËing per year.
Promotion and Tenure Documents. Karen Schmidt, on behalf of Jane Block. chairof the Promotion and Tenure Advisory Comrnittee, called the meetring's attentionto minor changes to the June 7 draft of the PTA docunent that had beendistributed following extensive discussion at the last faculty meeting. LoisPausch moved and Leslie Troutrnan seconded adoption of the revised PTAdocument. Susan Bekiares asked whether the document's calendar was specificor only intended to provide general guidance. Schmidt stated that while theexact dates might vary by a few days each year, the calendar was a closemodel. Following Schmidt's acceptance of a few editorial suggestions fromfloor, I.Iedgeworth asked whether Èhe meeting r¡ras ready for a vote. There beingno objection, a voj.ce vote was held, and the motÍon to adopt the revised PTAdocument was approved with no dissentlng votes or abstentions.
Academic Resídent Librarian Program. WedgeworËh described this new programand its rationale. Its origins Íncluded a recognition of the Library's needto recruit more junior members of the faculty and a desire to increase Èhegeographic distribution of persons hired for short-term appointments. TheProgram will be initiaced a year earlier than originally planned because ofthe need to do a considerable number of visiting appointments for 1994-95.One-half of the interns (about 3 to 5) will be appointed for L994-95, and thesecond half in the following year. Appointments wiII be for one year with ÈhepossibilÍty of renewal for one more year. The program offers the poÈential toattract a new and dlmamic group of people to the Library faculty.
The discussion resulEed Ín clarificatÍon of several aspects of the program aswell as expression of several concerns about its inplÍcations for facultydevelopment.
Kagan noted that he and Rosemary Stevenson would be proposing a minoriuyinternship program which perhaps should be joined to Èhis progran. I.IedgeworËhshared the concern for minority recruitment, but stated he wanted the ResidentPrograrn to stand on its orrn. Bart clark reminded the meeting thatannouncenenÈs for the Resident Program included the standard references toaffirnative action enplolment, and lledgeworth stated the progran would bebrought to the attentÍon of Reforrna and the African-Anerican librarian groups.
Maria Porta expressed a concern thet lt night be better to have residentsplaced in larger units where they could have more mentoring to learn thesystem rather than being placed in one or two person units. tledgeworth notedthat there were not many units with several librarlans, and we expected the

Approval Plan Subcommitteei'linutes of the MeetinqjuJ-y 5, L994
Present: N. Anderson, T. Kilton, L. MiIIer, t4. Smith, and P.Stenstrom.
The Subcommittee addressed the issues of reducing expenditures onboth the domestic publisher-based approval plan and the Europeanblanket order plan.
1.) To address the requirement of cutting $10,000 inexpenditures on the domestic publisher-based approval plan,the Subcommittee felt a need to supplement the June 24Lhsurvey. This survey was sent to Division Coordinators andrequested that divisions develop a list of three ( 3 )
publishers that potentially could be deleted from thisapproval plan. The Subcommittee believed a beneficialsupplement to this survey would be to request a list fromboth Division Coordinators and most fund managers of the ten( 10 ) publishers on the approval plan that are most importantto them. The survey also requested input regarding subjectareas that could be excluded from different publisher'scoverage. This survey t¡tas sent out JuIy 7th, with adeadline of August 10th for responses.
2.) To address the need of possibly cutting $25,000 inexpenditures on the European blanket order plan, theSubcommittee again felt a need to supplement the memorandumof June 24trh- that went to Division Coordinators andrequested their division's input regarding the Europeanblanket order p1an. The Subcommittee suggested that twofurther questions be asked of European blanket orderselectors (Marty Friedman, lvladhavarao Balachandran, EllenSutton, Pat Stenstrom, Jim Willj.ams, Tom Kilton, GaiIHueting, Pat Cardenas, and BiIl Brockman). The twoquestions were regarding the acceptability of switching fromreceiving books to receiving forms, and regard.ing countryand subject coverage. These questions were sent to theselectors on July 7th and had a deadline of August l-Oth forresponses.
The Subcommittee scheduled an August 15th meeting. At thatmeeting the Subcommittee wiII review the responses received fromDívisíon Coordinators, Fund lvlanagers, and Selectors, and. willmake recommendations regarding what methods to employ in order toreduce expenditures on these plans.

AISS Moves
A Message From Cathy Salika of AISS:
After years of be spread out in 4 different buildings, AISS is finally movingto a new building. Our Production and Telecommunications staff will stay inthe basement of the Administration Building because they need to be close tothe printers and the communications hub. All the rest of us will be moving tothe new building. Our new address is:
University of lllinois, AISS50 Gerty DriveChampaign,IL 61820
You can start using this address for mail immediately. For those of you whoknow the campus, the new building is about a mile south of Memorial Stadium onFirst Street, almost down to Windsor Road. For those of you who REALLY knowthe campus, we're in the old State University Retirement System building,which is between the credit union and the railroad tracks.
The Help Desk has already moved, so there will be no intemrption in theservice that you get from them. The Library Systems Group is scheduled to moveon Thursday, August 4. Most of us will be unavailable that day. My office iscrammed with boxes, so if we are a bit less efficient and responsive thanusual for a few days, please be understanding. The Help Desk will always be
able to reach someone if you are having a crisis.
All of our telephone and fax numbers will remain unchanged. Some time afterthe move, we will be getting voice mail. I will try to provide you withinformation on this when we get it.
The new building has been enlarged and remodeled for us and it looks verynice. There's plenty of parking adjacent, but no restaurants. We have some
nice meeting rooms, so perhaps some of you will be coming to visit us soon.

NEW INTEGRATED LIBRARY SYSTEM PROGRESS REPORT
Following is an announcement from Bernie Sloan of ILCSO which details theprocess being used to evaluate the eight responses to our RequestFor Proposal (RFP) for a new Integrated Library System:
"The ILCSO Policy Council met (via conference call) on Monday, July 18,1994, to discuss the vendor proposal evaluation process that earlierhad been proposed by the Functional Specifications Task Force (FSTF).The Policy Council unanimously endorsed the FSTF proposal.
Briefly, the vendor proposal evaluation process, to be conducted bythe FSTF, is:
l. Review compliance with the mandatory requirements, as stated inSection 3 of the ILCSO RFP.
2. Continue to evaluate those vendors whose proposals meet the manda-tory requirements. The FSTF will evaluate proposals using thefollowing basic groupings of criteria:
a. System capabilities (i.e., the functional specifications detailedin Sections 4 through l0 of the ILCSO RfP).Proposed system capa-bilities will account for 50o/o of a given vendo¡'s overall "score"in the evaluation process. To assist with this evaluation, theFSTF is planning to assign each functional a¡ea a percentage ofthe total value for this section. The FSTF proposed the followingweights for these sections of the proposals. Each vendor proposalwill be reviewed separately, and points will be assigned for eachfunctional a¡ea. The first functional area corresponds to section4 in the ILCSO RFP, the second area corresponds to section 5 in theILCSO RFP. etc:
l. Catalog creation and maintenance up to 20 points2. Public access catalog up to 20 points3. Access to electronic resources -- up to 10 points4. Circulation/Ill up to 20 points5. Acquisitions and serials control up to 10 points6. Collection management up to 5 points7. System specifications up to 15 points
b. Vendor resources and capabilities, i.e., the strength of each
vendor as an organization (including financial condition, staffing,experience, reputation, etc.), the vendor's proposed installation
plan (e.g., timetable, training plan), etc. Vendor resources and
capabilities will account for 30Yo of a given vendor's overall"score" in the evaluation process.
c. Proposed costs. Each vendor is proposing the cost of implementingits system. These cost quotes will account for 20o/o of a givenvendor's overall "score",
Mandatory Requirements Review: Each vendor's response to the mandatoryrequirements was reviewed by a sub-group of the FSTF. All eight vendorswere determined to be in compliance with the mandatory requirements, as
specified in section 3 of the ILCSO RFP.
FSTF Retreat: During the week of August 1, the FSTF will meet for severaldays to conduct an in-depth review of the 8 vendor proposals. After these
meetings, FSTF members will continue to develop their evaluations of eachproposal.
Confidentiality and the vendor proposals: Many of the vendor proposalscontain proprietary or confrdential information. Because of the sensitivenature of much of the information in these proposals, the FSTF has
decided to treat all vendor proposals as confidential, with access to theproposals (and accompanying documentation) being limited strictly tothose officially involved in the review process."

FY1995 Budget
August 10, 1994
For the 1994-95 fiscal year the campus administration allocated to the University Library funds tocover most of the negotiated increases to staff wages that become effective in 94-95. The overallfaculty salary pool was increased by 4.25%. We were authorized to increase faculty salaries up to anaverage of 5Yo. However, funding for this purpose only covered, 95% of the base. The overallaverage we have achieved is 4.88%. Open range salaries have been adjusted an average of SYo toparallel faculty salaries.
Merit increases to faculty salaries have been awarded based on merit evaluations ranging from 3% to5%. Certain salaries, primarily at the beginning levels, have been increased beyond the merit increasein order to adjust for the increase of the beginning faculty salary to $27,000 for FY95. Based on rankand years of experience, all permanent faculty salaries were raised above the minimum and temporaryfaculty salaries were increased 5% for FY95.
Additional salary increments were made to recognize faculty who were promoted in rank, or who haveindicated an intent to retire within three years (three years maximum). A few faculty and academicprofessionals received increases in response to external competitive pressures. Overall, it is the bestsalary and wage package we have had in several years, However, we are aware that there are stillcomparative salary issues that could not be addressed within this cunent budget. Nevertheless, we willcontinue to look for ways to improve salary, wages and working conditions for all employees of theUniversity Library.
Since the salary and wage package was not fulty funded and there were no increases in the operatingbudget, FY95 will be a tight budget year again, We will need a combination of savings or additionalrevenues to cover increases in operating expenses and the increases in salaries and wages beyond thecampus allocation. Your cooperation in achieving these budget savings will be essential. We lookforward to an exciting and productive new academic year.

MinutesTask Force on Electronic Research Services Meeting
July 6, 1994
Present: Chan, Dossett, Trehub, Woodard, Watson (Chair).
7. Watson made a brief report on the status of the IRIS transfer
2. The committee then discussed its charge and the issues to be addressed in therequested report based on a framework of expectations for the Library drawn from tworeports of the Campus Committee on Computing and Networking. The role of theLibrary outlined in these two documents includes the following elements:
--Aggressive expansion of electronic products and services provided by the library:* electronic reference collection* national and local data sets (e.g., U.S. Census, Illinois economic data)* commercially available indexes abstracts, fulltext journals* provision of access to major collections already available over thenetwork, e.g. ARTFL* provision of access to government publications available over thenetwork* creation of major research collections based on library holdings to bemade available over the ne¡work
--Provision of access to online reserves, teaching materials as requested by faculty
--Major role in user training
--Major role in organizing and providing integrated access to multiple sources
--Continuing library responsibilities+ archiving faculty member data* liaison with publishers, etc. re: copyright issues
3. Most of the meeting was devoted to discussing the means for provision of integratedaccess to multiple information sources both from Library public-access workstations andvia UIUCNET.
4. Other issues identified for inclusion in the final report included: personnel needed tosupport various functions, staff development and training, evaluation of electronicinformation sources.
5. Dossett reminded the TF that other bodies had examined some of these issues in therecent past and that we should build upon work already done by others, e.g., theReference Services and User Education subcommittee of the User Services PolicyCommittee. The TF will also plan an open forum after l-abor Day for broad-baseddiscussion of the issues.
6. Projects at other institutions were cited and Trehub mentioned a listserve at UMi thatmight enable us to keep track of current developments. The Information A¡cade at IowaState was mentioned specifically in the context of the policy issue of where the Library'sresponsibility to the user stops in relation to information delivery: do we merely provideaccess or should we aid in meaningful manipulation of the data?
7. A beginnings was made on a draft list of issues/potential recommendations to beaddressed in the TF report.
8. Merri Beth Lavagnino has been added as an ex officio member of the Task Force.
9. Next meeting set for July 25, 1994,1:00 p.m.

MinutesTask Force on Electronic Research Services Meeting
July 25, 1994
Present: Chan, Dossett, Kibbee (guest) l-avagnino, Trehub, Williams, Woodard, Watson(Chair)
I. Brief report on status of IRIS , Grainger digital library initiative. Distribution of somerelevant literature, and topical reordering ("ERS Topics Outline") of the "V"ryPreliminary List of Issues/Recommendations" (Watson).
il. The balance of the meeting was devoted to discussion of the "Very Preliminary List..."and the 'Topics Outline" and assignment of committee members to work on the varioustopics.
1. Policy and Planning
Agreed that the report should provide a blueprint for the library's role in the provision oflibrary-based networked information sources. Three members will be assigned to workon this and also to address other policy issues; namely, public access to Internetresources via library workstations and the library's role in facilitating manipulation ofdata as opposed to simple access to data.
Kibbee observed that the Library ought to be aware of what other departments are doingin considering its own role, but there was general agreement that it was time for theLibrary to define what it sees as its place in the provision of campus electronicinformation services and that one of our functions would be to identify existing campuselectronic information sources and to provide pointers to these as part of our provisionof integrated access through the Library.
AITG (the Advanced Information Technologies Group of the Program for the Study ofCultural Values and Ethics) was mentioned in addition to CCSO as a campus entity withwhich the Library needs to collaborate.
2. Infrastructure
a. Technical issues
Most of the discussion centered on the pros and cons of maintaining library informationon a library-based server versus a machine maintained by CCSO.
b. Staffing Issues
Staff training and development was the primary topic. Woodard suggested theimportance of conducting an initial needs assessment and following up with perhaps
a
yearly assessments to keep pace with technological change and staff turnover. Thepossibility of a standing committee to address staff training issues was also mentioned.
The issue of improvements in internal communication received brief attention and therewas agreement that, at the very least, LON should be put online.
3. Content
The topics outline listed the following electronic library information sources as candidatesfor a library-based campus information service.
General library information Data sets(e.g., hours) Government information
l¡cal databases Online reservesNetworked CD-ROMS Teaching materialsElectronic reference sources Available fulltextResources to be digitized by sourcesthe Library, e.g. Kolb Archives)
The committee added remote databases to this list. The importance of providingelectronic access to all of our own holdings was also stressed with its implications forretrosPective conversion and creation of records for now uncatalogued collections.
I-avagnino also raised the issue of the fïnancing, for example, of CD-ROM sources to benetworked. Will units pay increased costs of network site licenses or will this be handledcentrally?
4. User training
Discussion postponed.
m. Work Assignments
Committee members agreed that both Kibbee and Woodard had important perspectiveson the issues and that Watson should propose Kibbee as an additional member of theTask Force.
Assignments were as follows:
1. Williams, Kibbee, Trehub: Policy issues. Trehub will act as convener. Eachcommittee member should draft a statement due to Trehub in nvo weeks. Subgroup willmeet during the third week in August to consolidate their ideas and present a draft forTask Force consideration.
3
2. I-avagnino will draft a position paper on the pros and cons of library maintenance ofits own server.
3. rttr/oodard will draft a set of recommendations on staff development and training.
4. Dossett, Chan, and rWatson will address content issues.

their program, which starts September 6. The following message is from
Thomas ievek, chair of the UIC Library Task Force charged with creating
Internet training oportunities' Merri Beth Lavagnino)
Thanks for your interest in Ride the eTrain' Ride the eTrain is available
for subscripiion only to UIC users as it is specific to our campus computing
environment. tt *iti however, be available to interested off-campus users
through our gopher at gopher.uic.edu under "The Library" option' Lessons
will be posted to our gãph.t as they are sent to subscribers beginning
Septemüer 6th. W. iro plan to make it available through ftp at ftp'uic'edu

1.1 WELCOME
Vy'elcome to "Ride the eTrain: an Introduction to the Internet at UIC!"
This course is a non-credit introduction to the Internet and how to
use it at the University of Illinois at Chicago' The course is
distributed with an e-mail discussion group software progr¿rm know as
listserv.ThisisthefirstworkshopofthisnaturetobewrittenandofferedatUlC,althoughsomeparticipantsmayhavetakenpartin other simila¡ e-mail col¡¡ses available on the Internet.
As the course focuses on accessing the Internet from UIC'
only subscribers with a UIC e-mail address may subscribe'
Noí-UtC participants, those who do not wish to subscribe'
or those who do not use e-mail may view the lessons though Gopher'
The course will be distributed to all subscribers on a regular
basis early every Tuesday and Thursday for 8 weeks between September 6
and Octoúer 27,1994. Each lesson will also be made available on the
UIC ADN GOPHER as it is distributed. In addition, the course has a
companion discussion group "eTrain-I" where subscribers to the eTrain
cour¡e can discuss the lessons; help each other with examples' practice
or problems; or discuss the course or the Internet in general. (For
infôrmation on how to subscribe to eTrain-I, see the acknowledgement
you received after subscribing to this course')
1.2 COURSE OBJECTIVES & SYLLABUS
"Ride the eTrain: an int¡oduction to the Internet at UIC" addresses
some of the key concepts and issues that will help you better understand
and navigate the emerging "information highway." It will help you answer
some of the following quãstions through reading the lessons, doing the
exercises, and interacting with your classmates:
* What is the Internet and how does it work?+ Why should I be interested in the Internet?* What types of information is available on the
Internet and how do I flrnd it?+ How do I learn more and stay informed?
The course will teach you that there are many ways to access the
Internet. However, "Ride the eTrain" concentrates on what the
Internet looks like and how it works here at UIC. As a result' the
course does not address issues relating to how to get connected, nor
does it address hardware, software or telecommunications issues.
Although the course focuses on the Internet at UIC, there a¡e still
n*"rõr, ffpes of connections to the c¿tmpus network (ADN).
To ensure that the largest number of people can subscribe to the class
and do the exercises, the course was written for the most basic
connection (ADNi). The cotuse will not address the many other
ways that one can'connect to the ADN nor will it address how
these different types of connections will effect how you perform
many functions--printing or using the ADN, for example'
We ilope that theie typã s of issues will be addressed in future
versions of the class.

Financial Support for International Conferences
Enclosed is informarion concerning a program of financial support
for small conferences on topics of scholarly interest that have a significantinternational comPonen t.
please bring the information concerning this financial support to the
artenrion of interested fãculty. Note thar the deadline for the competition will be
November l,1994. We in International Programs and Studies hope that this new
program, though modest in size, will help to contribute to the intellectualatmosphere of the camPus.
Enclosure
INTERNATIONAL PROGRAMS AND STUDIESFINANCIAL SUPPORT FOR INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCES
A modest arnount of money will be made available on an annual basis by InternationaiPrograms and Studies to support small conferences involving leading experts on important topicsof current scholarly interest that have a significant international content.
The format may naturally ylry, but the intent is to fosterconferences comprising perhaps 8
to 12 leading figures in the selected area. Each participant would be expected to present anoriginal paper, prepared and made available in advance of the conference and open to critiquefrom others. Inasmuch as the conference will presumably treat a topic in which there is substantialinterest and e.xpertise on this campus by the organizers of the event, at least two of the participantsshould be a UIUC faculty member. It is expressly expected that the papers presented at theconference (possibly together with subsequent discussion) will be published through the Universityof Illinois Press, which has indicated its interest in such a series, or by a comparable academic pressor commercial publisher. One aspect of the budget for the event, then, could be support forpublication, in order to encourage swift production of a timely and important volume of studies.
The conferences need not be public events in the usual sense, although afrangementsshould be made for interested faculty and graduate students to attend as observers. In addition,planning could include public lectures by some of the participants, receptions in the relevantdepartments and similar activities, in order to introduce the visiring scholars to the campus and itsresources.
Conferences along these lines can generally be held on a budget ranging from $10,000 toS15, O0O, including travel and local costs for participants (assuming there are no honoraria forpresenting conference papers). Any department, or combination of units, can submit proposals,but each proposal must include a funding plan that includes support from other sources (e.g.
Research Board, departmenral coffers), and designate a person (or persons) responsible forarrangements. Initially grants from IPS will be limited to 510,000.
The Advisory Committee of International Programs and Studies will review all proposals andmake recommendations on awards. The deadline for proposal applications will be November 1 ofeach year; it is assumed thar the proposed conference will be scheduled at least 9-10 months afterthe submission.
Although the range of topics is not restricted, the topic must deal with an issue ofsignificant importance for international studies. Preference lvill be given to topics for whichconferences have not been held in recent years.
Finally, the plan envisages a series of occasional volumes with sufficiently common formatto be idenrifiable in the academic community as a continuing contribution by the University ofIllinois ar Urbana-Champaign to intellectual inquiry on an international scale and on topics at theforefront of inquiry. Although lnternational Programs and Studies cannot at this time sponsormore than one conference pèr year because of limited resources, and annual series can soon resultin a set of volumes in which the campus can take great pride.

lli,ceneing Agreemente & Site Licenses Proceöu¡ee
site lj-censes and licensing agreements, including those for complementary
acquisitions and trial subscriptions, are documents that bind the universityand the Library to certain restrictions in the use of the material which we
are purchasing or using. The restrictions that companies may require can
include issues of ownership, access and use. These agreements may be
presented before an order can be filled, or may come with the product j'tself'
T11ges of material which conrnonly have licensing agreements include software'
cD-RoMproducts,andaudio-visualmaterialsuchasvideotapes.
These Iicensing agreements/site licenses are legal documents which require the
review, approval and signature of university Legal Counsel and the universityLibrarian or Deputy university Librarian. To protect the Library in general
as werr as Acquis:_Lions or the fund manager/selector, all such agreements must
be handled in the following manner:
*SendtheunsiqnedagreementtotheLibraryBusinessoffice.
* The Library Business office makes 3 copies, attachs an addendum forsignatures and takes the agreement to the Deputy University Librarian, who
reviews the document to be sure that any restrictions do not unnecessariry
inhibit service to Library users. If pãtential problems are aPParent' they
are reviewed wj-th the universi-ty Legal Counsel. Once approved, Deputy
University Librarian signs off ãn the agreement and the copies and si'gnature
sheetareforwardedtoUniversityLegalCounsel.
*TheUniversityLegalCounselreviewsthedocunentforpotentiallegalproblems, changes langiuage in the document to cover questions of
indemnification and other issues, and forwards the agreement to the office of

-\¡proval PIan SubcommitteeMinutes of the lvleetingAugust L5, 1994
Present: M. Allen , L- Miller , L'Stenstrom.
Pausch, M. Smith, and P.
The Subcommittee developed the following suggestions for reducingexpenditures on both the domestic publisher-based approval plan andthè nuropean blanket ord'er plan f or FY95 '
1.) To address the need, to reduce expenditures by $10,000 on thedomestic publisher-based approval plan, tÞe_ Subcommitteesuggesce¿ ïnat the profile be refined. to exclud,e the area ofpopular fiction.
2.) To address the possibility of reducing expenditures by $25,000un the euiop"an blanket oid.er plan, the Subcommittee suggestedtwo steps:
A. ) Consult with EBO selectors regard,ing: -refining theirind.ivid.ual EBO prof iIe, and' changing f rom automaticreceipt of books to receipt of forms in as many areas aspossiL1e. The Subcommittee agreed that EBo funds would'be used, to purchase any items selected, from forms thatfal1 within the current EBO profile. It was felt thatthi; approach would reduce expendítures through increasedselectivitY.
B. ) Immediately notify our French, Italian, and spanish.r"náor= rJgarding- a reduction in their FY95 budgetedamounts. It olas felt that this should' be doneimmediatelY for two reasons:
j_. ) in order to a1]ow for the time that will be neededto implement and obtain the benefit from anyprofilè refinements and receipt of forms instead ofbooks; and
2.\ in order to deter any over-expend'iture that may
occur if vendors continue to send titles at theircurrent rate of shiPment.
If possible, these suggestions will be presented to the CollectionOevêlopment Committeaãt tnei-r August !6, 1994 meeting'

Guest: Frances Painter
1. Arnold Wajenberg welcomed Frances Painter as a guest of the Committee' and
members of the Committee introduced her/himself'
2. Arnold announced that he has a copy of ALA's "Guidelines for Bibliographic
Description of Interactive Multimedia. " Anyone who might be interested should

3. Arnold announced that the topic of this meeting is to discuss the future of the
Committee after his retirement and the functions of the Principal Cataloger.
Frances painter informed the Committee that Robert V/edgeworth, Bart Clark and
herself met and a position announcement for the Principal Cataloger is being prepared'
The administration wants to conduct the searches for the Principal Cataloger and the
principal Serials Cataloger in a timely manner. Suggestions for qualifications for these
positions should be voiced to the administration'
Member of the Committee raised the question about the status of the backlog unit'painter replied rhat it is on the list of positions to be filled. The head of the backlog
unit will be hired first, and it would be an internal search. There was also discussion
about whether the backlog unit will be an independent unit or part of the Principal
Cataloger's Office.
Member of the Committee asked whether the head of the backlog unit will be hired
before the principal Cataloger. Several members of the Committee responded that it
would make sense to hire the Principalfunction of the backlog unit, e'g. will i
Members pointed out that the size of thsize of the library, and it was suggeste(
the size of the bãcklog in various units. Painter asked whether the backlog is
accessible to patrons, and apparently it varies from unit to unit'
A discussion followed on whether a person should be appointed as acting in the
Principal Cataloger's capacity during the interim period' This is a concern to the
members of the Committee becauselamong other reasons, the original cataloging slips
are now sent to and reviewed by the Principal Cataloger' This question was not
resolved, and it was suggested that procedural changes may be made instead'
Members of the Committee agreed to elect a person as CPAC Chair pro-tem' Richard
Burbank and Gail Hueting have been nominated. Arnold will send ballots.
4. Other business

the OCLC video conference on digital library to UIUC. Further announcements on

develop a plan for cooperative collecìions within the CIC. The CDOs decided that the ILL policies are not clear
and need to be synthesi)ed by the ILL and the CDo groups. A new document to be developed by the CDO and ILL
groups on Resource Sharingis forthcoming. ttre COo's taskforce on electronic journals will also have a document

Bill Mischo, who met with the automation di¡ectors, also reported to the committee' He noted that UIUC will have
several problems in using the VEL: there will not be matching of authority files, the system will not include UIUC's
circulation information, and the searchcommands for the VEL's catalog will be NOTIS and not our home system's'
He also noted that the availability of UIUC's catalog on NOTIS offers distinct search advantages'
The Virn¡al Electronic Library will be implemented in two phases. Phase one will be completed by February of
1gg5 and will provide pAc-Search in all institutions. Phase Two will allow either mediated or unmediated
borrowing through all terminals. UIUC is not initially apaft of phase rwo.
Robert wedgeworth added that unmediated borrowing is often a problem because institutions don't assume
responsibility for their patrons. He noted this will be one of the VEL issues to be discussed by the CIC library
directors.

OCLC Prism QuickStart
Many people have discovered
that the OCLC First SYstem has
been discontinued as of last
Monday. We must now use the
Prism system. In order to get
those of you who were stillusing the First SYstem uP and
working on OCLC Prism as
fast as possible, an informalPrism Quick Start session has
been arranged for WednesdaY,
September 7, at.3:30 in room
335 of Grainger.
Renee Hough in History has
graciously agreed to do this
very informal "this is how You
search Prism" session. Pat
Stenstrom from LibraryScience and Gail Hueting from
Modern Languages have agreed
to be in attendance to helP
answer questions. The session
will be aimed at those who
already have been searching
OCLC using the First SYstem
and just need a quick overview
of how to search using Prism in
order to get going back on
OCLC quickly.
We think most PeoPle set uP
with Illinois Search Aid are
able to get to Prism bY
choosing the "P" oPtion instead
of the "F" option, which comes
up right after you choose
OCLC from the menu. If Youhnd you cannot get to Prism at
all, please let me know and we
will try to figure out what to
do for you.
We realize that there are some
larger OCLC issues to resolve
in the long run, like whichmethod of access is the most
cost effective, which software
product is easiest to use and to
support, etc., and those issues
will be addressed soon. But,
this Quick Start session is just
to get you back on OCLC
while such issues are studied.(Meni Beth Lavagnino)

Installation ofReplacement LCSmachines
Bart Clark and I have hired a
CCSO Onsite Consultingstudent to install the
new LCS machines that have
been delivered to Your units.
He was trained this Past week
and has begun working on this
project.
Here is the plan:
l) The CCSO student and./or
my GA (Damon Jaggars) willshow up in the units to take the
machine out of the box, Put it
togetner, ano lnstall [n9
software. He will take it to the
public machine to be rePlaced,
unplug the old machine, and
plug in the new machine. Thisis in order to test that the
software is working from the
new machine. Then he willplug back in the old machine,
and put the new machine in
some out-of-the-waY sPot
designated by you. It will sit
there until step two haPPens.
2) The Business Office will get
a list of what sites he has
finished. and will call the
people who come do the lock
down plates. When the lock
down plate peoPle come to
unlock the old machine and
lock down the new one, we
need to ask someone in Yourunit to bring the new machine
out of hiding to be lockeddown. The old machine can go
back where you were hiding the
new machine. In theory the
new machine will work when
plugged in since it was tested
already. (If it doesn't, Please
Page 3 Library Office Notes
call my GA, Damon, at 4-4688'
and he will coordinate getting
the right help.)
3) The Business Office willthen use a list Provided bY Bart
to update their inventory lists
and to deliver the old machines
to their aPProPriate Places. Bart
has a plan for the old machines
(it is not a given that You get to
keep it) and so any concerns
about that old machine should
be directed to him. At the Pointthose are delivered to their new
spots, if assistance is.'needed to
install things, let me know and
we will either get CCSO to
come back to work on it or
find a local person if it is a
small project.
This procedure is for the
REPLACEMENT machines
only. We do not Yet have a
plan for installation of the
NEW PORT machines because
we are working on determining
a way to get the best wiring for
our money (i.e. network wiringthat will get You to more than
just LCS.) However, the
student will put the NEWPORT machines together in
preparation for when the new
wiring is put in Place' Please be
assured that getting Your new
lines in place is a Prioriry forus, and we are working on it as
quickly as we can'
So, please be PrePared for aperson from CCSO or mY GAto show uP to install the
replacement LCS machines.
Since we have over 40 to do
and we are contracting out this
help, it would be easier for us
if they can show uP
unannounced, instead of us
scheduling a date and time for
each of you. If thisunannounced showing uP is just
intolerable for you, let Damon
know and he will work withthe CCSO student to try toaccommodate You.(Meni Beth Lavagnino)
IOt Terminals
With the addition of the new
DEC IO+ terminals the Librarywill have between 15-18 IBMPSl2 286 comPuters for staffuse. If your unit is interested
in one of these comPuters'
please contact me bY SePt 24.

Task Force on Electronic Research Services
Very Preliminary List of IssueslRecommendationsJuly 6, 1994
1. Articulate a vision of the Library's role in the provision of networked information and
develop an overall Plan.
2. provide network connection for all Library public-access workstations. Will
necessitate technical changes on some libiary workstations; some major, some minor'
Define technical requirements?
3. Develop a front-end menu (using the CCSO Micro
on which IO+ is just one oi seuãral options, includ d
databases (such as ne*nspaper database), other libr
tools, etc.
4. Library-based information sources should reside either in space set aside on the
CCSO UNIX machine or on the library file-server'
Maintenance of the library file server should be given a high priority and staff
assigned as aPproPriate.
5. The Library should take responsibility for library information on the campus gopher
which should become part of a library gopher'
6. Staff should be assigned to various functions( e.g., library gopher maintenance) and
their job responsibilities should be clearly defined'
7. Staff development and training is needed before the Library can take on its obvious
largescale responsibility for user training'
g. Mechanisms and criteria should be developed for the evaluation of electronic
soufces (subcommittee of collection Development committee? new committee?)
g. A policy on public access to INTERNET resources via library workstations should be
developed.
10. Need specific recommendations for means of improving communication'
11,. Resources unique to this library should be identified for digitization (e.g.' Kolb
archives).

Watson (Chair)
)
Cole reported on his new appointment and described how what he would be doing
related to the committee's work.
The draft mission statement prepared by Kibbee, Trehub and Williams was
reviewed and revisions sugges-ted. Suggestions included: (1) additional stress on
ry for printed information and on the
mation on these resources into electronicd other traditional catalóguing initiatives;ration with other camPus entitities, such
regionally; and (3) greater emphasis on
the library's role in a of the data accessed through lib:ary
gui"*uy.. woodard use of the phrase "information literary" in
the section on user e - ut that this concept cannot be defined
and suggesting that instruction of useri in access to electronic resources should be
,""n, Ñndeed everything else in the mission statement' as an extension of
activities in which the library is already engaged'
Lavagnino presented a summarÏ of the pros and cons of the Library having its
oryn serïer vs. contracting this function out to another unit.
Other aspects of the discussion included:
(1) recognition that significant de-velopment cannot take place before an
àipropriãte hardware/íoftware infrastructure that can be centrally supported has
been put in Place.
(2) the need for realistic priorities in relation to the local situation. For example,
certain functions such as online reserves and class notes dissemination are related
io ,t "
bibliographic platform and developments in this area should be postponed
until a decision-about the platform has been made'
(3) the importance of coordinating independent faculty initiatives within an
òíeratl libräry planning frameworÈfor elèctronic information provision'

5. Decisions
(1) Agreement that an open forum meeting on the topic of electronic research
iervicei would work bettei after the committee's report has been produced for use
as a discussion document.
(2) Agreement that the mission statement should be followed by a statement ofìpecifiõ objectives which will in large part constitute the recommendations of the
report.
6. Assignments
Williams, Kibbee, and Trehub will revise the draft mission statement based on
discussions at the meeting.
Remaining committee members will continue work on earlier assignments.
Members will submit schedules so that weekly meetings can be set up for the
month of SePtember.
Following is the Task Force charge ftom the University Librarian which' owing to
miscnmmunication, has not prcviously been published in LoN.
l:N.l.ay 25,1994
Dear Committee Members:
I am pleased to appoint you to a new Task Force on Electronic Research Services. The
charge to the Task Force is as follows:
Develop the initial plans for the integration of the IRIS database service of the
.ampuj Research Sêrvices Office (currently being closed) into the Library.
Although the plan should envisage a stand-alone unit during a one year test
period-ther. ãr. implications for a broader electronic information service which
ihe Task Force will examine. The report of the Task Force with
recommendations is due by September 30.
This represents a major opportunity for the Library to pursue an innovative new service
and I look forward to working with you toward this end'

Grateful Med Progress
Report
A small imPlementation group
consisting of Mitzi Williams'Victoria Pifalo, Bruce GlettY
from CCSO, Bob Penka from
CCSO, Winnie Chan, Tim
Cole, and Merri Beth
Lavagnino has been meeting
regularly for the last few weeks
in order to move the Grateful
Med project beYond the testing
phase.
We are pleased to announce
that the Office Version is now
available for use. This version
is meant to be used on Personalcomputers in offices and labs,
not in public sites, and users
will be prompted to login using
their CCSO ph alias and Ph
oassword. The software is
àvailable from the CCSO FTP
server, and directions forobtaining it and installing it are
given in a new document called
the "UIUC Grateful Med
Installation Guide." Buildingnetwork administrators and the
CCSO Resource Center will be
supporting technical issues
related to FTPing the hles,
installing them, and obtaining
and installing the other
software necessary for Grateful
Med to run. Several librarians
will be supPorting questions
related to searching.
Each departmental library is
receiving a coPY of each of the
three new documents relating to
the Office Version, mailed to
you aPProximatelY the same
time as this issue of LON isbeing mailed. These guides will
also be available from the
CCSO Resource Center and the
Library Graphics Service. In
them, you will fìnd answers to
most questions You might be
asked, as well as Phonenumbers for where to direct
other questions' Please take a
look at these documents when
they anive, and distribute them
to appropriate PeoPle in Yourunit. For additional coPies,
please order from Mike Cinker
in the Business Office using the
following GEN numbers:
"UIUC GratefulMedOverview," GEN #l l8; "UIUCGratefu I Med InstallationGuide," GEN #l l9; and "UIUCGrateful Med Brief Search
Guide," GEN #120.
PLEASE NOTE that the coPies
being mailed to You DO NOT
have the GEN numbers on
them yet, so You will need to
make a note of the numbers
somewhere for future use.
The Library Version of the
Grateful Med software is not
ready yet for general
distribrrtion. There are several
technical issues to be resolved,
including obtaining aPProPriate
hardware and networking lines
in public areas of our libraries;
how to allou¿ non-UIUCaffiliates in to the Ph-passworded system; and some
securiry and PrivacY issues to
be resolved through minorprogramming. In addition, a
larger question is whether to
allow the use of the Loansome
Doc feature from the Publicsites, and if so, how.
The grouP exPects to Prepare a
discussion document on this
topic which lists the issues
involved and as manY Possibleoptions as we can think of' tobe presented to a more
appropriate grouP for decision
making.
The Library Version will be
implemented, as a ftrst Phase,in the Library of the Health
Sciences-Urbana and the
Agriculture, BiologY, Vet Med,
Home Economics, APPlied Life
Studies, and PsYchologY
libraries. The order ofimplementation will dePend on
networking issues. In fact, the
Library of the Health Sciences-
Urbana and the Vet Medlibrary have public access at
this time, and we expect to
implement BiologY next, since
these th¡ee had the most
demand for Grateful Med and
had public networking lines
available. These three sites willwork with us as we seek to
solve the technical issues
mentioned above. After the
above libraries are
implemented, we will add
Central Reference, and then
discuss further imPlementation
sites.
Please take a look at the
documents being mailed to each
departmental library, and if You
have further questions, direct
them to Meni Beth Lavagnino
at [email protected] or 4'7839.(Meni Beth Lavagnino)

Dear UIUC FacultY and Staff:
This is the time of year when the campus charitable fund drive asks each of us to contribute to those
less fortunate than we are.
I want to urge you to join me in making a gift to the organization(s) of your choice' The amount of
your gift is not as important as your willing"ness to help' You can make a difference in the life of a
needy adult or child.
Last year the Library did not reach its goal for the campaign. Let's be sure that the campaign will be
successful in the Library this year. In órder for that to occur WE NEED YOU'
SincerelY,

Recent ¡vfILO ProblemsExplained
Cathy Salika of AISSforwarded to us the followingreport on the recent
MILO problems.
"Those of you who relY on
MILO were certainlY aware ofthe problems that we had,
particularlY on FridaY, SePt. 2,
and Tuesday, SePt. 6. Here's
what happened:
There's a program calledTOLLBOOTH that acts as the
interface between MILO and
LCS and FBR. (I assume Youall know that Milo was the
hero ofthe book, "ThePhantom Tollbooth." That'show it got its name.) AISS has
been working on a Project to
create multiple coPies of MILOrunning on a number of UNIXcomputers. This will allow us
to get some of the workload offof our mainframe comPuters
and make MILO run faster' In
order to do this, we had toprepare a new version ofTOLLBOOTH.
The new TOLLBOOTH went
into regular use last June and
has performed quite wellall summer. UnfortunatelY,when the students returned and
the load on MILO shot uP,
TOLLBOOTH was suddenlY
overwhelmed. We went through

time the Publication became
popular among Professionallibrarians not onlY in the
AngloPhone world, but also in
library circles in the Far East'
Thus in 1987 Burger's work
was translated into JaPanese
and published in Toþo bY
Maruzen Publishers under title

1993 it was translated into
Chinese and Published in
