     A few weeks ago I inquired broadly about MDAS
requirements.  We think we have enough space and funds to
support one database initially without additional
resources.  The Library is considering Readers' Guide to
Per.  Lit.  (current service and retrospective data back
to 1983). I was hoping someone could answer a few of our
questions:

1.  How much time is required to load the initial load
    and the monthly updates?   How much time is required
    to regenerate the index?

2.  When regenerating the index, we would be using tape,
    we currently have 4 3480's model B11, would faster
    drives be needed?  What tape drives are others using?

3.  When regenerating the index would both OPAC and MDAS
    be down or just MDAS?


Any other comments on experiences with MDAS would be
appreciated.

Has anyone been using the "sub-database" feature of MDAS.  I can't find
much in the way of documentation about how it works and what it can be
used for.  Can sub-databases be searched separately without using a KWB
.db. in the command?  Is there any way to get search statistics by
sub-database?

Subject:      NUGM 1992 and C

I am moderating a session on implementing Release 5.2 at NUGM 1992.
I am interested in locating a speaker, who feels comfortable discussing
the ramifications of adding the program language "C".  I am particularly
interested in identifying a TECH1 who is willing to speak, but if a
non-technical person feels comfortable with the topic that will be fine.

I have a member of the Circulation SIG who will speak on issues related to
the needs of the Circulation module, and NOTIS will provide a speaker who
will bring us up-to-date on what is happening with release 5.2.

Any interetsted volunteers?
Thank you.

Subject:      Print Through Circulation Mailers

  Hello Everyone,

     I am looking into the use of some Print Through Mailers for our
  Circulation System. I have received some information put together from
  Kent State University about the mailers they are using. However to
  produce these mailers it requires a "locally written program" to make the
  NOTIS information fit on these mailers. In the interest of savings, (time
  and resources) has anyone else started using print through mailers? If so
  would you be willing to share your program written to format the output
  to the mailers? We unfortunately can only use things written in Assembler,
  COBOL, and SAS. We do not have Easytrieve+ which is what some sites have
  used. If you have something and you would like to share it, please send it
  to me through E-mail, or if this is not convienent give me a call and I will
  send you a tape to put it on.  Thanks for your time.

We used to be able to add a barcode when the item was charged in 4.6.1.
Then in 5.0 we couldn't.  Then NOTIS changed it back so that you could
again in 5.0.1.  See PPQ3339, NOTISes Oct 1991, p. 26-27.

A quick glance at the code for LB395 seems to indicate that someting may
be foul in your parameter card. The program wants each segment to
start with one of these letters: PCDFK. The statement I find in my
test JCL (which has worked for quite a while) looks like this:

   D190.C26.F100.K30

(I'm way out of my depth here, but I suspect that the F and K parts can
change from one installation to another?)

Is this any help?

Subject:      852 field and max display lengths

I have been investigating a problem where a 'VHLD' display shows an incomplete
display screen but shows 'MORE' at the top.  If <enter> is hit, the display
will not show the rest of the data in the volume holdings record.

The problem seems to be with records whose 852 field has a length of over
999 bytes.  I thought this to be a screen limitation at first, but since the
cutoff point for a good/bad display seems to be at 999/1000 bytes.  Could
this be a problem in the displaying program in the definition of the data
as being 2-byte-COMP versus 4-byte-COMP?  CoBOL makes this different-
iation so I suspect ASSEMBLER also does.  Might this be a program bug?

Any speculation from the rest of you on this?  Has anyone else noticed this
problem?  I wrote a CoBOL program to detect these and it gave me back a dozen
records that are too tall.   Thanks for any feedback.

The Indiana testing of NOTIS 5.0 and 5.0.1 focused on the OPAC. The
increases we reported, therefore, would not be seen at your site
unless you use the OPAC. Our tests showed a dramatic increase from 4.6
to 5.0.  This is attributable to the new OPAC interface, the LCRFILE,
and the OPAC MHI.  When we moved from 5.0 to 5.0.1 another dramatic
increase was observed. This we attributed to the new keyword search
engine.  I hope this clarifies what IU has reported.

NOTIS was able to help us with a solution to this, so they may be able to

A pointer in NOTISes some time ago proved very helpful to me in trying
to get GTO working from where you seem to be right now (i.e., the
communications seem to be working, but the records aren't being created).

Try to manually do a DERIVE in order to create a new record.  Evidently,
GTO passes the record to NOTIS and returns the 'upload' message to GTO.
Then it uses essentially the same programs in DERIVE to actually create
the NOTIS record.  Our particular problem was the housekeeping record
and our FCT statement for the standard number index.  Yours may be
different.  Once we got the commands to work that derive a new bib
record from an existing record, we were home free.

By the way, NSI was VERY helpful in getting me over this hump.  Thanks,
Christine!

Good luck.

Subject:      ALA keyboards on PCs
Comments: To: Notis Discussion <NOTIS-L%TCSVM.BITNET@CUNYVM.CUNY.EDU>

McGill Libraries are using PCs on a Novelle Ethernet LAN, with the
LAN terminal emulator package developed at McGill called NET3270.

This emulator provides full ALA support, including printing. It
works quite well for NOTIS because that is what it was designed to
support. I worked with Pierre Goyette here at McGill to make sure
it emulated the Telex 476L keyboarding as much as possible. It is
possible to re-map special keys; in the Libraries I remapped
the CLEAR, EOF, Field Mark, and Subfield Mark. NET3270 can be
loaded into HIMEM, so it will leave enough DOS memory to run a
concurrent PC application (our Tech Services uses NET3270 together
with the Laserquest GTO - one workstation to access both NOTIS and
the CD-GTO).

NET3270 can run 5 concurrent mainframe sessions. You get full ALA
diacritic display (over and under the letters) if your PC has VGA.
It is quite easy to configure and customize for individuals or
groups on your LAN.

If you would like more information about NET3270, contact Pierre
Goyette at PIERRE@VM1.McGill.ca

I am hoping to speak about our LAN workstations and the networked
Laserquest GTO at NUGM.

Beth,

We're having the same problem here.  Our systems people want very badly to
move to CICS 3.2 or above.  This was a hot issue here a year ago, it died
down, and has resurfaced again because the increased resource utilization
of LMS 5.0.x and NOTISearch has really squeezed our current hardware capacity.
Beacause of proration and restricted funding we don't know if we'll be able
to upgrade our hardware at the end of our current growth cycle in the summer
of '93.  Consequently, our systems programmers want to move to CICS 3.2 or
above to make more efficient use of our hardware.  But NOTIS is the only
system on campus that can't migrate up because of the macro level coding.
One solution that we're looking at is an interface that would allow macro
level code to run under CICS 3.2.  One such product that our systems
programmers have found is MACROMAN by On-Line Systems Inc.

Personally, I'm not comfortable with one more level of software for both
performance and maintenance reasons.  But I'm afraid that the situation
here may soon evolve to the point where my comfort level is irrelevant.

I am wondering what different MDAS/NOTIS sites do to maintain a defined
display order for databases under MDAS.  Does anyone purposely load their
documents in chronological order so that the latest date is displayed first
from a series of search results?  Does MDAS display documents in the order
in which they are loaded or is their a way to specify display order?
Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

I would assume that the security for accepting funds is operator specific.
At charge, if a patron is blocked because of owing money, they could "buy
down" below the threshhold and then check out materials.  Similarly,
at discharge, if someone has the security to accept funds they can then
get the payment immediately rather than go to a second staff person.
I would have to ask our Circulation staff if someone who cannot accept
money can even see the message about overdues owed...

Are you indexing that field specifically for the authority records?
I had to request that our programmers index that field for authority records.
I confess, however, we have transferred the information from the 010 field to
the 035 field, as the 035 field is immeasurably easier to input mannualy.
Because we have transferred this information to the 035 field, this may not be
the answer to your problem.  But, it worked for us.

Very best wishes to the newborn and to the parents from someone born on the
same day many decades ago.  It's a good day to be born on--Nicholas Alexander
has made a wise choice.  Suzanna Lengyel.

Subject:      AMIGOS NOTIS Users & Texas NOTIS Users' Group Update

Anne Highsmith suggests that more will be known after the June ALA
pre-conference and MARBI meetings on format integration...and that the
topic be deferred to November.  That's fine with me...I would like other
Texas NOTIS Users' and AMIGOS NOTIS customers to tell me if this sounds
like THE topic you want NSI and Anne to cover in November or whether
there are other topics as well for that session...
