Got this off of the latest issue of Edupage:
"SEE YOU SEE A LIBRARIAN" AT U. OF MICHIGAN
The University of Michigan has set up a videoconferencing system between
several residence hall libraries on campus and the main library, allowing
students to access a reference librarian from their dorms. "It's like `The
Jetsons,'" says one librarian. "The students just really enjoy using it.
They're fascinated by the technology." The system uses Cornell University's
CU-See Me videoconferencing software. (Chronicle of Higher Education 26 Jul
96 A21)"
