Abstract
The paper discusses how to share functions such as cataloguing and interlibrary loan between libraries and other information centres by setting up a virtual network of microcomputers using TINlib software. Data exchange between eight information centres is effected using floppy disks, thereby creating a Floppy disk Local Area Network, or FLAN.
