The Online Catalog: Exceeding Our Grasp.
Lipow, Anne Grodzins
American Libraries, v20 n9 p862-65 Oct 1989
Discusses two problems related to the use of online catalogs: (1) staff training has not kept pace with new catalogs, resulting in a lack of search expertise in staff and patrons; and (2) users expect instant access to materials found in the catalog. It is argued that these problems must be addressed to adequately serve library patrons. (CLB)
