Subject:      NEW-LIST: GAY-LIBN: The Gay/Lesbian/Bisexual Librarians Network

     Here is the announcement of a NEW discussion group for
     librarians, which seems to be of growing interest based
     on the articles appearing in the last few weeks in AL and LJ.

     I am posting this notice on these discussion groups, because
     some people were concerned that they only heard about THIS
     group through the grapevine, and were concerned that some
     List Moderators prevented the notice from appearing.

     I hope that no one will make the editorial decision to prevent
     this from going out to your respective subscription lists!

GAY-LIBN@USCVM          The Gay/Lesbian/Bisexual Librarians Network
GAY-LIBN@VM.USC.EDU

GAY-LIBN is an electronic forum for discussions of interest to gay, lesbian,
and bisexual librarians (and friends).  Discussions on the list will often
be directly related to libraries or library associations.  Since the list
is devoted to the general concerns of LesBiGay librarians, however, some of
the exchanges on the list will be of a more general nature.

To join the list and receive mailings from GAY-LIBN:

     At Bitnet nodes (IBM machines), type the following at your system
     "ready-prompt":  TELL LISTSERV AT USCVM SUB GAY-LIBN Firstname Lastname

     At Bitnet nodes (VAX machines), type the following at your system
     "ready-prompt":  SEND LISTSERV@USCVM SUB GAY-LIBN Firstname Lastname

     At other nodes, send mail to LISTSERV@USCVM.BITNET or to
     LISTSERV@VM.USC.EDU as follows:
     SUB GAY-LIBN Firstname Lastname
     [Note:  Leave the "Subject:" line blank.  Do not include any other text,
     such as a signature file, in your mail to LISTSERV@VM.USC.EDU.]

LISTSERV will forward subscription requests to the list owner, who will
process the requests and add new subscribers as quickly as possible.

Subject:      Key caps

At one time, in another setting, I used something called a keytop overlay
by the Hooleon Company, Page Springs Road, P.O. Box 201, Cornville, AZ,
86325, tel. 602-634-7517.  They manufactured an overlay that covered the
top of th ekey, remarking and redefining the keytop, attaching like a label.
According to the company, they were NOT simply stick-on labels, but an
actual chip with the same look and feel as the original key.  They were
printed on the underside to prevent wearing away of the print.  Then a
permanent non-slip adhesive was applied to keep the overlay securely in
place on the key.  They sent me samples at the time (this was about 1986,
and I used them on IBM terminals, but they may well be able to help you
with your situation.

Subject:      MIDWINTER--GIORGIO HOTEL, CAR RENTALS, ETC.--HELP

I did not make hotel reservations for Midwinter until it was too late to
get a room anywhere near downtown Denver.  I've got a room now at the Loewe's
Giorgio which is apparently halfway between downtown and Tech. Center and
is (I have been assured by 2 Coloradians) a FABULOUS hotel.  However ...
it appears that the only way to be assured of getting around will be to
rent a car.  If I do that, I will probably have to park it all the time also,
which will be a real drag.

Is there anyone else out there in a similar situation who has some great
ideas on how we can get around the car rental solution?  Or who has any
other ideas/info?  I hear there ARE taxis in Denver but that they do not
cruise around looking for wealthy librarians like they do in New York, San
Francisco, etc.  Is this accurate?

Sorry for posting this on three lists.but

Hoping to hear from folks soon,

Well....  we originally had it set up for the weekend of April 23rd,
BUT we are now negotiating with a larger hotel, and the date may be
moved back a week.  The IUG Steering Committee hopes to have this
finalized before ALA Midwinter at which time we also hope to announce
the proposed agenda.   I will make sure that we make multiple
announcements so that everyone will be notified  (the listserver and
mailings).

Hi, Betsy.  You do know that we use NEC Pinwriter printers and Avery OCLC
Standard Equipment Labels from Highsmith to create all our labels
automatically, EXCEPT for those that go on outside of BOUND VOLUMES.  Those
are created by one particular person using the INNOVATIVE label (which we
place inside the book) as a guide.  I know you know all this, but I just
wanted to answer your question.  HAPPY NEW YEAR to both you and Giles.

At Lafayette College, we have just begun printing our labels from the
item record.  We are using a Genicom printer with an Orator font which
we've used for printing labels from OCLC in the past.  Our printer has
the capablity to double space - we've set the pitch on the printer to 8
lines per inch and double space the labels.  III set up the parameters
for us - if you use a similar configuration, feel free to copy them.
The printer is attached to a Wyse 150 terminal (parallel printer).
We received help in configuring our printer form Amy Morrison of
Swarthmore.  She has a new printer from DEC, I think, which has the
capability of being set at a pitch of 4 lines per inch - she too uses
an Orator font but without double spacing.
We do not print the location automatically as III can only print all
of them or none of them.  We didn't want STACK above most of our
call numbers, so we chose to have none printed.  We key in the
location before the call number on the bib record before printing
the label when a location is necessary, then exit without updating
the record.
We are using single labels of se-lin type material with separate
plastic shields which we buy from Vernon.  Prior to using this type of
label we were using foil backed labels.  We find the se-lin type
adheres better.
Hope this is helpful.

I don't know if this is the right place to post this message or not, but I
thought someone might be of help in this area.

We're trying to set up an ARP and a DNS based server on a PC based system.
We're using Lan Workplace for DOS v 4.0 to use TCPIP on Internet. Instead of
having to map permanent IP addresses for each computer, it would be nice to
have the server be able to assign IP addresses on a first come first serve
basis. We are running IP & IPX packets over the network.

I realize this is pretty technical so I hope I'm not out of place. Thanks in

advance for anyone who can shed some light on the process to do this.

The buffer stages can be avoided, thereby releasing you from memory
constraints.

You can also get by with one fanin stage by swapping streams 1 and 2

Try this:

>:READ INSRT REXX A2
>/* INSRT REXX - a pipe filter to insert data lines into a pipe
>
>   Format:  REXX INSRT lineno dupno dataline
>
>   Action:  The primary input stream is read and output.
>            After line "lineno", "dupno"+1 occurrences of the line
>            "dataline" are inserted into the output stream.

Subject:      Program to print the contents of a file with line numbers

Before I go and write one, has anyone write a program to print the contents
of a file with the following characteristcis:
1. A header with fileid of file.   Label and ccu of mini-disk would be nice.
2. Page number in header.
3. line numbers for each line.  If line exceeds a specified (or hard code)
   lenght it split into mulitple lines at first preceeding blank or at column
   if line has no blanks, i.e. for long lines output is
             10 first part of line
                second part of line
                    etc.

If so would you be willing to share it.  If not I'll try to write one.
