A Way to Print the List of References Retrieved on CD-ROM with Our Library's In-house Holding Information

The new library of Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine opened in May of this year. At that time, the card catalogues were done away with and OPAC (Online Public Accessable Catalogues) was introduced. In addition, CD-ROM MEDLINE by SilverPlatter and CD-ROM Igaku Chuo Zasshi have also been introduced. These are being used more frequently than we expected. Observing the end-user's access behavior toward the literature required, I became aware that they are searching in-house holdings on OPAC after searching the articles required on CD-ROM databases. These two searching behaviors are performed by users separately, but actually these two are closely related. So the unity of CD-ROM and OPAC searching may be the most desirable for them. In this article I show how to print a list of references retrieved on CD-ROM MEDLINE with our library's in-house holding information.
