I would like to hear from anyone who is using Chancery Software's Mac School
Library module for automation.  I am just beginning with this system and would
like any tips and or warnings about the system.  I will not be reachable at my
 E-mail address after Saturday, June 5.

Subject: WOLLONGONG & CD-NET

Help!  Does anyone on the list know anything
about Wollongong network-what kind of software
it uses and if it is compatible with CD nets
(specifically Meridian Data CD Net)?  I am
posting this question for techie staff at
the Library I'm at, so if the way I've
worded this question seems impossibly naive,
that's because I am! (NOT!)

Any and all assistance will be welcome!
Thanks...

Re TSR Internet Guides.

     Would you (Michael Hart) please tell me what TSR programs you are
using and where you obtained them.  I think a lot of list members would
be interedted in this answer.

The particular TSR's I use (showing my age here) are Superkey/Sidekick.
Actually, the only you you probably have to have for this cut/paste-ing
is SuperKey (actually had to look, as I always load them both together)

Sidekick has a full word-processor built in, which allows for the large
screen grabs at much higher speed than does Superkey.

Of course, the Norton Commander, PCTools, and lots of other TSR utility
programs will allow you to do the same thing.  I can check on Mac TSRs,
if anyone needs info on those.  Most UNIX os's don't need such things.

Thank you for your interest,

As an interested media specialist and novice email-er, I was fascinated by the
 discussion thais past week regarding libraries and in
formation access, whic I read on the list before subscribing.  I logged on as
 part of an assignment in a course on electronic access
 to information at the University of Wyoming, and had already decided to pursue
 that topic as my final project.  Thanks to all who c
ontributed to the discussion.  I regret that my late subscription to the list
 will last only a few more hours, unles
s I can convince the University, my local community college in Sheridan, or my
 school district to provide me with access.  I wish I
were able to continue reading, and possibly contributing, to future discussions.
I am the media specialist at Big Horn High School/Middle School (145 students
 6-12) in Big Horn, Wyoming, 6 mile SE of Sheridan, and
 computer specialist for the district (2HS, 2MS, 2Elem).
I do subscribe to GEnie personally, and if anyone can tell me how to get onto
 BITNET or internet from GEnie, I would appreciate the
assistance.

Thanks again!
