Hi fellow librarians,
I am writing a research paper the library automation system, Alexandria.  I 
need your help in identifying the strengths and weaknesses of the system 
from a cataloging perspective?
How are MARC records displayed?
How are MARC records edited?
How are MARC records displayed from the staff perspective? Tag numbers? 
Word Labels? 
How are records imported into the system? How often? Are there 
difficulties?
How is original cataloging done?
Is authority control available?
Are CIP records imported--how are they handled or are they?
What do  you see as the future of OPACS and why?

Anything else you would like to share?
Thank you for your wealth of knowledge and willingness to share!!!!!!!!

Whatever the cost of our libraries, the price is cheap compared to that of 
an ignorant nation. -Broadcaster Walter Cronkite


My encouragement to you is to go tomorrow to the library. -Poet Maya 
Angelou during a speech to a college audience that encouraged students to 
read voraciously and never stop learning.
