Library on OLIS

Autumn, 1996

As the result of the local computer network installed in the Museum, it has been possible for the Library to become a member of ‘OLIS’, the University’s inter-library on-line catalogue, or ‘Oxford Libraries Information Service’ to give it its full title.

At this stage the Museum is only a very small presence in a vast database, with only limited cataloguing access, but before long, and after the full introduction of ‘New OLIS’, it is hoped that retrospective cataloguing of the collection will begin in earnest.
