URBAN INFORMATION 
RETRIEVAL

An information retrieval system that scans 
microfilm documents and automatically selects 
those with desired subject matter, is now oper­
ational in the library of the Center for Urban 
Regionalism, Kent State University. The system 
will (1) gather existing urban information and 
research data especially useful for planners; 
(2) abstract this information if necessary; (3) 
index each document according to key words 
or phrases from an “urban thesaurus”; and 
(4) microfilm each abstract along with its ac­
cess codes. The “urban thesaurus” is a 20,000 
key word-phrase index compiled by John E. 
Rickert, associate director of the center. The 
system will receive contributed information 
from all over the country. Future users of 
the system also will most likely add their own 
data to the system’s coded microfilm library, 
and the system permits continuous updating 
of both the thesaurus and the microfilm library.

Rose L. Vormelker, who compiled the mass 
of regional information in conjunction with the 
Community Research Conference, has been ap­
pointed chief of the Urban Library and Infor­
mation Service at Kent State to organize the 
urban data.

Development of the thesaurus with the 
Recordak System and organizing the informa­
tion was made possible by a $32,943 federal 
grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and 
Urban Development. ■ ■
