We at SFU have loaded the grolier database and indexed ALL words
in the articles.

We are in the process of loading the MICROLOG Index, which is
available from MicroMedia in Toronto. The load program is pretty
straight forward. The beauty of using a DBMS like SPIRES is the
one standard file def will suit many various database with
slight modifications to account for different field names.
