CAMPUS AND AREA Microfiche streamlines Watson's cataloguing Page 9 By ERIKA BLACKSHER Staff Reporter The days of time-consuming card cataloguing grow fewer as more efficient microfiche systems such as the one recently adopted by Watson Library come into use. The system — which lists books on microfiche cards — allows the library staff to keep the catalogues more current, because additions or changes can be made more easily, because Neeyle, head reference librarian, New material will be in the system two to four weeks sooner than it is now, Neeley said, because under the old system each card for a new book had to be typed and filed. The new system allows students to look up any book listed on the microfiche cards, even if they're working in a branch library. "They won't have to run from the Science Library to Watson Library to look something up," said Clint Howard, dean of technical services for the library. HOWARD SAID THE library spent a significant part of its time and budget on the catalogue cards and the staff time to file them. Filing time and cards alone cost the library about $85,000 a year, he said. Using the microfiche, the library will save almost $50,000 annually. Howard said. project is to go on-line," Howard said. "Micedeiche is only an interim phase, though. The overall goal of the In an "on-line" system, information about books in the library could be called up directly on a display screen, rather than reading the information from a microfiche card. "We hope we don't have to wait longer than four years," he said. Declining computer hardware costs make completely automated records a more practical possibility. Howard said. University Daily Kansan, August 29, 1984 THE OLD CARD catalogue wooden cabinets full of drawers of index cards will remain in the brown house after the above箱 brought January 1981 was not converted to the microfiche system and now only new material is being catalogued into the microfiche system. Howard said that the cost of transferring the material catalogued before 1881 to the microfiche would be too high to justify. "Ten or 15 years down the road you couldn't justify it economically to convert all of the older material into a microfiche system," Howard said. Reaction to the new system generally has been positive, Neeley said. BEFORE MAKING THE final decision on the system, which opened to the public Aug. 1, Howard investigated microfiche systems used at other universities and found an "overwhelmingly positive response."
