----------------------------Original message---------------------------- ------------------ Julia, Check out the March/April 1999 issuer of Library Technology Reports. It = reviews several automation systems. Other small systems to look at include Access, = TLC, Athena and Winnebago. Most of the new systems can accomodate slides, images,= and web sites. Good luck.

I am presently enrolled in a MLS program at U of Md., and am preparing for a field study project at a small art gallery. The gallery recently built an addition that included a room (c. 20' x 20') for a library. Volunteers are presently organizing and cataloging the library on cards. The librarian in charge of this library is interested in finding what is available in VERY EASY to use cataloging software. Once I am finished with the project, other volunteers (most of whom are retired and not computer literate) will be cataloguing acquisitions. We would like to index periodicals and slides along with the books, all of which have been donated. The system would be used primarily for searching=3B there are no plans for the collection to circulate. And we assume that this will probably be all on just one computer, probably a Mac. Also, cost is a factor - I don't believe the gallery has the funds for an expensive system. I would appreciate any input or suggestions or sharing of experiences.
