Target: Elementary schools with CD ROM networks

[Janice Ziglin <janicez@EXECPC.COM>]

Our school district is about to install CD ROM servers in our media
centers.  These will deliver reference materials like Primary Search
(possibly) and may deliver other software CD-ROMs which otherwise
might be installed on hard drives.  Apparently the systems would
eventually be capable of holding (eventually) 30 CD-ROMs.  We are
wondering
a:  who has CD ROM servers in their elementary schools and what is
placed on them?

b:  is it a good idea for classroom computers to have individual
cd-rom drives even if we have this marvelous system?  Since we
wouldnšt want to buy site licenses for every little program that comes
along wouldnšt they still need them in the classroom?

c:  are all cd roms networkable?

d:  what else do we need to think about?

Išll post a hit if I get some responses sent to me. TIA.
