* I'm looking for Library software that will run under UNIX version 4.2. I'm a student at the University of Toronto Institute for Aerospace Studies, where our librarian is considering purchasing one of the new National Semiconductor ICM 3216 microcomputers (32016 based) to automate our library. This computer apparently has a flaky port of UNIX System 5, and will soon have a 4.2 port. The price is very low for the hardware, so if software is available it'l make the deal very attractive. So...I was wondering if anyone has heard of any packages of library-oriented software for 4.2. I'm not sure what all functions the librarian is looking for; presumably at least title and author searching, and that sort of thing. Well-tested software would be good, and software that has been used in many libraries would be best. If you are aware of any such packages, please mail me a short description of it (if available), along with the name of the author or manufacturer, price, and any experience you've had with it (and anything else you think might be of note).
