COMPUTER ACCESS CATALOG SYSTEM

OPAC (On-line Public Access Catalog)

Brand new and grand new, the COMPUTER ACCESS CATALOG SYSTEM, has been completely redesigned and reprogrammed to make full and complete use of all the outstanding features of the Windows environment.

COMPUTER ACCESS CATALOG SYSTEM offers flexible operation and utilizes all the features to be found in Windows ’98, ’2000, XP, XP PRO and NT. Both single user and network versions are available making the program perfect for every small and midsize library and special collections in larger libraries.

Point & Click operation makes it easy for even the most inexperienced computer user to select and find search requirements. And those familiar with the Windows format will discover a program designed to utilize all those features, making the program user friendly. The COMPUTER ACCESS CATALOG SYSTEM is so affordable and so easy to learn and use it allows you to make better use of your time. You do not need to be a cataloger or a typist. The on-screen templates ask for all the needed information. Simply type the information in the spaces provided. Making corrections and fixing mistakes is done at the touch of a key. And, probably the best part, type the information once, you need not do it again.

COMPUTER ACCESS CATALOG SYSTEM creates on-screen reports so both staff and patron can quickly and easily locate the desired information and materials. For the staff it automates and simplifies repetitive library tasks.

NEWEST ENHANCEMENTS AND ADDITIONS:

  • Search by all parts of the entry (i.e., author, title, subject, call # and all others)
  • Search for any words in any of those fields
  • Search and find ANY word in the notes field
  • Print with ease directly through the Windows printer driver
  • Read bar code labels using a scanner

You may also adapt this program so it can be used as an Acquisition program. Entering the date ordered in the ID field allows you to print by order date, print and submit to publisher or jobber. When the item arrives, simply delete the order date, and enter the ID#. It is already in the system and ready to be shelved. If desired, you can print a shelf list card and hold it for arrival.

Print complete reports on screen or paper of all holdings, by author, title, call # or ID #. Print the entire catalog or any part you choose. Print labels for spine, book cards and pockets. Create these reports through the Windows reports manager and print through the Windows printer driver.

Compare this high quality, high performance software package with other systems costing 5 - 10 times more. Compare ease of installation, learning, and use.

Consider the joy of calling our office and hearing a human voice. Consider the features the program offers. Consider the instructions; written by a librarian and as easy to read and use as the program. Consider calling (or emailing) Right On Programs and requesting a fully functional demo.
