470 BOARD OF TRUSTEES [December 17 Area for the purpose of establishing the clinical base necessary to increase the enrollment of undergraduate medical students. The negotiations resulted in an affiliation agreement which was approved by the Trustees on September 16, 1970. The agreement states that the means of implementing and obtaining support for the undergraduate medical education program will be subject to the approval of the governing bodies of the University and of the affiliated hospitals. A committee representing each of the hospitals and the College of Medicine has recommended that the University, through the College of Medicine, enter into contractual agreements with its affiliated hospitals to pay for the development, implementation, conduct, and evaluation of those medical education programs which have been approved by and under the direction of the faculty of the College of Medicine._ The institutions cooperating with the College of Medicine and providing the base for educational programs would be paid only for agreed-upon actual expenditures for program development, implementation, conduct, and evaluation. Funds are available in the operational budget for the "Metropolitan Chicago Group of University of Illinois Affiliated Hospitals." The terms of the proposed contracts are as follows: Estimated Cost Not Affiliated Hospital to Exceed Illinois Masonic Hospital $ 63 200 Lutheran General Hospital 63 200 MacNeal Memorial Hospital 63 200 Ravenswood Hospital 63 200 Louis A. Weiss Memorial Hospital 63 200 Mercy Hospital 63 200 Total $379 200 The Executive Dean of the College of Medicine and the Chancellor at the Medical Center recommend approval of the above contractual agreements for fiscal year 1972.

LIBRARY O F T H E HEALTH SCIENCES MEMBERSHIP IN 'BIOMEDICAL COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK', STATE UNIVERSITY OF N E W YORK, MEDICAL CENTER (12) The State University of New York has developed a 'Biomedical Communication Network', members of which maintain computer terminals on their campuses and are able to directly query the medical citation file maintained at the Computer Center of the State University of New York. The network provides access to medical literature to an extent and at a speed which could not be approached prior to the development of the network; e.g., the entire MEDLARS (Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System) File from 1964 to 1971 can be scanned in approximately two minutes. The accuracy, completeness, and speed of access to the total medical literature inherent in the network system will make membership a valuable and necessary adjunct to traditional library services. Membership in the network has been offered to the University at an annual cost of $9,300, which includes membership, associated terminal rental, line charges, and computer search time for the period January 1, 1972, to December 31, 1972. Funds are available in the operating budget of the Library. The Director of the Library of the Health Sciences recommends accepting the offer of membership. The Chancellor at the Medical Center and the Executive Vice President and Provost concur in the recommendation. I recommend approval. On motion of Mr. Steger, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Forsyth, Mr. Hahn, Mr. Howard, Mr. Neal,
