Online Public Access Catalogs‐ New Interface Possibilities

Abstract

Last month I left the McDonald's cash register interface squared off against Lare Mischo's “command line or death” ultimatum. To those who feel each end of this spectrum has lapsed into hyperbole, I must report a very serious discussion held recently in the largest library in our state, where the so‐called “ATM” (automatic teller machine) interface was deemed a real possibility.
