At the end of November '98, aviation researchers at our Museum got an early Christmas present from the library when records for the last of 5000 magazine articles originally indexed on cards made it into the computer. This marks the end of the retrospective conversion project for cataloged books and indexed magazine articles, formerly searchable only on cards. No longer do library users have to try to guess whether a book or article record they need is in the computer or in a card file. The Inmagic computer database, created to allow either separate or joint searches for books and magazine articles, now contains records for everything that has been either cataloged or indexed at our library.
Researchers then receive their book and article citation lists by either snail mail or email.
