Abstract

In 1984 the Health Sciences Library at the State University of New York at Buffalo created a local area network (Lan)for the Library Consortium of Health Institutions in Buffalo using a multi-user microcomputer. The rationale, methodology, capabilities and problems of the Lan are discussed. The changed demands of the Consortium and new University specifications on compatibility which have prompted plans for a new Lan are stated. The rationale and design for the new network are presented, and suggestions for Lan planners are made.
