LANSLIDE — the development of a system for managing a slide collection at the University of Lancaster Library

Abstract

The LANSLIDE slide management system developed by the University of Lancaster Library is a multi‐user, stand‐alone system designed for operation on an IBM PC‐AT (or compatible) which is capable of running under the Pick operating system. LANSLIDE provides facilities for slide cataloguing with access to the records by keyword searching. Search facilities are enhanced by boolean AND/OR/NOT combinations and through the option of truncated keywords. Mini‐labels containing captions are produced by the system for fixing to the mounts of 35mm transparencies.
