Techniques of flow-charting

Automation of libraries must come about through close cooperation between librarians and "machine people." Each must understand something of the other's specialty. For a starter, a good common language is provided by flow charts, which are simple work- flow charts written in yes -no terms. They can be quickly understood by the "machine people," and the technique of making them can be learned by a librarian in a very short time.published or submitted for publicatio

Florida Atlantic University Library

Florida Atlantic University is a new upper-division and graduate state university on the southeast coast of Florida, at Boca Raton. It occupies a former government air field of some 1200 acres. The first phase buildings were occupied last summer, the second phase buildings are under construction, and the third phase are in the final planning stage. The first phase library occupies three floors of a five story building, the second phase will occupy the whole five floors, and the third phase (first addition) will double the five floor space. The Computer Center, with its IBM 1460 computer, is in the library building during Phase I only. The IBM 360 system has a delivery date of July 1966, the occupancy date for Phase II. The University now has 1187 students. This number is to grow to 10,000 by 1970. Colleges of Social Science, Science, Business Administration, Humanities, Education, and Engineering form the university organization.published or submitted for publicatio
