A comprehensive indexed bibliography data base using a micro computer.
A comprehensive index has been developed for coding and cataloguing alcohol literature. A system has been implemented using a commercial data base management program and a micro computer for computerising the references. In addition to the index code and citation the user can also enter an abstract and a description of the article. References can be added to the computer, edited, searched for, displayed on screen, typed on paper, or sent to a text file using a selection of criteria entered by the user. When a search is performed the printout can include the abstract of each paper similar to that obtained from larger bibliographic services. Such a system is beneficial for personal study, for writing books, articles and theses and for use by departments and small libraries.
