I have no idea where the right place to ask this is; if somebody
can think of a better place than bionet.general, please let me know.
Our librarian has been requested to put together (and maintain) a
database on mycobacterium literature. Basically, this would be a subset of
Medline which we would generate by searching our Silver Platter CD-ROM
database. Then, we would import this data into some sort of (as yet
undertermined) database system. Or at least that's one idea we had.
Can anybody think of a good way to do this? It needs to be easy to
maintain (so our non-computer-expert librarian can do it) and use (so our
non-computer-expert library patrons can access it). It also needs to run
on existing hardware (Macs and/or Unix boxes).
Does such a thing already exist? If it does, it might make more
sense for us to simply subscribe to it instead of maintaining our own.
