Most of the 400 libraries using Ameritech's Horizon software have now loaded Version 4.2. Among the enhancements are greater searching capabilities through linked bibliographic records, multiple authority records, and the ability to request closed-stack materials from the PAC. The last of these enhancements reflects the fact that a majority of the 400 systems are installed outside the United States in countries where closed-stack libraries are common.
Ameritech now maintains development offices in the United States, Germany, Canada, and the United Kingdom, and has undertaken Beta testing at libraries in each.
