Electronic publishing, particularly using compact disc read-only memory (CD-ROM), offers advantages for dentistry. Establishing industry standards is crucial for successful implementation and cost-effectiveness.

Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Medical Informatics
  • Publishing Technology

Background:

  • Electronic publishing is rapidly evolving, impacting information access and storage.
  • The transition from traditional paper to digital formats is evident in medicine and engineering.
  • Compact disc read-only memory (CD-ROM) presents a viable alternative to tape or online systems for dental literature.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the potential of CD-ROM technology for dental literature dissemination.
  • To identify key factors for the successful adoption of electronic publishing in dentistry.
  • To propose a framework for guiding the integration of new publishing technologies.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of the advantages of CD-ROM over existing storage and retrieval systems.

  • Consideration of technical aspects including indexing, retrieval, and hardware requirements.
  • Examination of copyright implications associated with electronic publishing.

    • Main Results:

    • CD-ROM technology can efficiently store a year's worth of dental journal and textbook literature on one or two discs.
    • Standardization of production and playback systems is identified as critical for widespread adoption.
    • Potential fragmentation and increased costs due to a lack of unified industry standards are highlighted.

    Conclusions:

    • The dental profession has a unique opportunity to proactively shape the adoption of electronic publishing.
    • A collaborative approach, involving a forum for standards and principles, is recommended to integrate traditional and digital publishing.
    • Strategic guidance can prevent a fragmented and costly implementation of new technologies.
