New Online Library Catalog (1Mar95) (from KPNO, NOAO Newsletter No. 41, 1 March 1995) The NOAO/KPNO library has just launched its new online catalog with information on the holdings of the Tucson and Mountain libraries. The initial catalog holds about 4000 titles, representing all the new books and journals received in the last 14 years as well as a few records of older books. Additional older records will be added as quickly as possible. I am first adding the books at the Mountain library so we can retire the print card catalog there. Next will be the remainder of the Tucson books that are presently signed out, so we can incorporate the circulation feature of our system. This is a work in progress with more records being added weekly, so while new books will appear only in the online catalog, library users will still have to check the printed card catalog for older books. Visitors can stop by the library office for more information on how to access this or may send me a message at library@noao.edu. Cathy Van Atta
