Subject: Bibliography of CD-ROM Titles

Prof. James Marchand (U. Illinois) has given permission
for his bibliography of CD-ROM titles and projects to be
added to the HUMANIST FileServer (it is also available
on a private BBS called TRANSNET by calling 217-384-5101
and telling the SYSOP that you heard of it on BITNET).
I have reformatted the line lengths of what I received
(some word divisions were not preserved, unfortunately)
and have added a small amount of information (introduced
with "+"). I have not attempted to include the rapidly
growing body of genealogical CD-ROMs beyond listing
those of the Automated Genealogical Research System;
obviously there are other areas in which such a
bibliography will be outdated immediately, but Prof.
Marchand's generous contribution provides an excellent
starting point and cross section for this burgeoning
technology. His electronic address is in the header
of the bibliography file. Corrections, additions, etc.,
should be sent directly to him.

This bibliography is available on the fileserver. You may obtain a copy
by issuing the command -- GET CDROM PROJECTS HUMANIST -- either
interactively or as a batch-job, addressed to ListServ@Brownvm. Thus on
a VM/CMS system, you say interactively: TELL LISTSERV AT BROWNVM GET
CDROM PROJECTS HUMANIST; if you are not on a VM/CMS system, send mail to
ListServ@Brownvm with the GET command as the first and only line. For
more details see the "Guide to Humanist". Problems should be reported
to David Sitman, A79@TAUNIVM, after you have consulted the Guide and
tried all appropriate alternatives.
