Abstract

Librarians find themselves today in a lively period of the evolution of user interfaces to online information. Most of the newer interfaces incorporate graphics, colour and mouse-supported searching to make intiation for the novics user easier and all searching more productive. Describes the University of Delaware's development of DELCAT MacPAC, a HyperCard-based front-end to the university's OPAC, adapted from Cornell University's MacPAC. The focus is on Delaware's customisation of MacPAC for its environment, including the support of remote users, and the testing, use, and distribution of the product
