crln-20628	Porter, G. Margaret	What does electronic access to bibliographic information cost?	1991	4	.pdf	application/pdf	1870	81	62	G atew ays CARL Systems offers access to their UnCoυer database, which consists o f information about cur­ rent articles from 10,000 multidisciplinary jour­ nals. Assuming that a main­ frame with a large enough central processing unit and necessary telecommunications and software are in place, cost components to be considered for this option are: additional disk space on the main­ frame, since loading bibliographic databases will take up a great deal of space, especially if backfiles and/or files with abstracts are loaded; search soft­ ware which will enable users to search biblio­ graphic indexes through online catalog terminals, preferably by using the same search protocol as with the online catalog; annual loading fees charged by the vendor of the software, or purchase of a load program to be used by library staff; annual software maintenance fees; subscription prices for February 1991 / 91 the current year of the databases to be loaded; prices of any backfìles to be loaded; and, in most cases, additional terminals, printers, paper, rib­ bons, or ink cartridges.	cache/crln-20628.pdf	txt/crln-20628.txt
