An interactive computer-based circulation system for Northwestern University: the library puts it to work

Journal of library automation [June 1972]

.

Abstract: Northwestern University Library''s on-line circulation system has resulted in dramatic changes in practices and procedures in the Circulation Services Section. After a hectic period of implementation, the staff soon began to adjust to the system. Over the past year and a half, they have devised ways to use the system to maximum advantage, so that manual and machine systems now mesh in close harmony. Freed from time-consuming clerical chores, the staff have been challenged to use their released time to best advantage, with the result that the "service" in "Circulation Services" is more closer to being a reality.
