| 520 | |a This planning proposal recommends that Memphis State University Libraries make information on CD-ROM (compact disc--read only memory) available in the Reference Department by establishing an Information Retrieval Center (IRC). Following a brief introduction and statement of purpose, the library's databases, users, staffing, facilities, and equipment are discussed; three recommendations for the installation of CD-ROM stations are presented; and eight CD-ROM-format databases recommended for acquisition during the initial phase of IRC implementation are described, including annual subscription costs. Presented next are a consideration of database selection and workstation allocation which includes a table depicting workstation allocation and use, and a tabular presentation of workstation configurations which covers the quantity, description, and cost of workstation equipment, modems, furniture, and electrical power control equipment. Finally, site preparation specifications are presented for walls, electrical power, lighting, HVAC (heating, ventilating, and air conditioning), library computer system data cables, and telephone service. An illustration of a microcomputer power source and a library floor plan are included, and a 60-item bibliography is provided. (Author/KM) | ||
