However, there is at least osme sort of tentative plan to create a North American Database, which would comprise information from: NLS, RFB, APHCARL, and other such sources. I agree that NLS should provide this date free, particularly its own data, since public libraries provide card catalogs free, be them electronic or manual. -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!101!460.0!Mika.Pyyhkala Internet: Mika.Pyyhkala@p0.f460.n101.z1.fidonet.org
