    The Bowman Gray School of Medicine Library is computerizing operations, starting with book collection recataloging using Magnetic Tape/Selectric Typwriter (MTST) for data acquisition and card production. This initiative enables direct computer access to library holdings and supports future data management.

    Area of Science:

    • Library Science
    • Medical Informatics
    • Information Management

    Background:

    • The Bowman Gray School of Medicine Library initiated a project to modernize its operations.
    • Traditional cataloging methods were being replaced by a phased computerization approach.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To recatalog and reclassify the library's book collection.
    • To establish a computer-based system for managing library holdings and operations.
    • To enable efficient information retrieval for users.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized the Magnetic Tape/Selectric Typwriter (MTST) system for simultaneous catalog card production and computer data acquisition.
    • Planned integration of a keyboard optical display system for online updates, editing, and retrieval.

  • Developed a computer-stored data acquisition process for all new acquisitions since October 1967.
  • Main Results:

    • Established a computer-stored book catalog as the library's first data bank.
    • Enabled direct computer consultation of library holdings from any optical display terminal.
    • Implemented retrieval operations including document reproduction and statistical data generation.

    Conclusions:

    • The project marks a significant step towards the full computerization of library operations.
    • The new system enhances accessibility and retrieval of medical library resources.
    • Future phases include computerizing serial holdings and faculty publications.
