It is a computer-based catalogue which library users access via a terminal (Andersen, Gosling, Mortimer, 284). It enables
the patron to interact with the computer and develop search strategies that were not possible with the earlier catalogs. It
can provide additional access points by key word, call number and others as well as indicate whether the item is in a shelf
in the library or checked out (Chernik, 53-54).
