Data Base Fair
Free computer-searched bibliographies highlighted a "Data Base Fair" held in front of Widener Library yesterday.
"We had over 350 undergraduates and Faculty members drop by to see this quiet revolution in information retrieval," Dan Posnansky, associate librarian of the Graduate School of Education, said yesterday.
Though the Graduate School of Education has had the Lockheed-developed computer system for four years, Posnansky said that the large turnout at yesterday's fair shows "it's obvious that very few people knew about it." There are now terminals at four other libraries: Widener, Cabot, Baker, and Countway at the Medical School.
