Title

Would you like the databases you regularly use to be multimedia?

Source

Information world review. 1994, no.97, S.36-37

Abstract

Presents the views of 7 European information professionals on the value and use of multimedia databases. The enjoyment of working with a colourful, well designed database may be very appealing, but not if it means that the cost of a search goes up. 4 factors will determine whether the promise of multimedia is realized: ease of use, including the ability to customise; platform independence; affordability; and the development of authoring tools that will allow information workers to create multimedia reports in the context of normal day to day activities
