The Research Libraries Group, Inc. (RLG) and The Computer Company (TCC) have announced the completion of a license agreement in which RLG will send records from the Research Libraries Information Network (RLIN) data base to The Computer Company in exchange for discounted TCC services for RLIN users.
Under the agreement, RIG will send TCC all the machine-readable bibliographic records in RLIN that represent materials in micro format. This addition to The Computer Company's files will increase its hit rate for converting the records in the National Register of Microform Masters (NRMM) to machine-readable form, a project contracted for by the Association of Research Libraries (Aim). As part of the agreement, TCC will provide certain of its services, such as authority control, at discounted rates under special arrangements to users of RLIN.
