Abstract

This resarch letter discusses online cataloge (OPAC) research in Europe. It concentrates on experimental research in OPAC development although some OPAC-related research is also included. Four general areas are identified: interaction/interface design, subject access, functional research, and OPAC networks. Three operational OPACs, not available outside Europe, are also discussed
