CONDOC (Consortium to Develop an Online
Catalog). Request for Proposal for an Online Catalog |
| DESCRIPTION: |
As vendors begin to offer client-server architecture and
other improvements to online catalogs, it seems appropriate to take a look at what
features were desired in second-generation systems. The ALA Catalog Use Committee believes
the CONDOC RFP is a good place to start evaluating the progress of library system vendors
since 1981. ALA Midwinter conference CONDOC distributed a survey to its members.
Respondents ranked 40 features of an online catalog. The results were incorporated (as
appendix A) in this document. |
