  • Title: Medical serials control systems by computer--a state of the art review.
    Author: Brodman E, Johnson MF.
    Journal: Bull Med Libr Assoc; 1976 Jan; 64(1):12-9. PubMed ID: 1247704.
    Abstract:
    A review of the problems encountered in serials control systems is followed by a description of some of the present-day attempts to solve these problems. Specific networks are described, notably PHILSOM (developed at Washington University School of Medicine Library), the UCLA Biomedical Library's system, and OCLC in Columbus, Ohio. Finally, the role of minicomputers in present and future developments is discussed, and some cautious guesses are made on future directions in the field.
