Renewal of Contract, Bibliographic and Library Processing Services

(22) The University continues to hold an operating service contract on behalf of the University's libraries with the Office of the State Librarian. The contract enabled the University libraries to acquire access to an automated system developed by the On Line Computer Library Center, Inc. The object is to aid bibliographic search and cataloging at both campuses and to improve services to the interlibrary loan program as well. By means of the system, requests for reference data or for catalog file cards for new publications are entered into a local terminal and passed to the center via dedicated telephone lines. Reference data are returned by the same method while catalog cards are produced automatically at the center and sent by mail to the requesting library. Estimated expenditures for renewal of the program for Fiscal Year 1985 are $328,000.' Funds are included in the appropriation bill of the General Assembly to meet the ordinary and contingent expenses of the University of FY 1985. The funds will be included in the library's operating budget requests for the Urbana and Chicago campuses for FY 1985. The vice president for academic affairs and vice president for business and finance have recommended the renewal of the contract as described, subject to the availability of such funds. I concur.
