Re: [IUG] Connect to IUG Directory Database

I just found out about it recently.

For us, we purchased this option way back in 1997 but have never turned it on.
It gives us the ability to install AND index a special database such as a community database separately from the III database.

It can have it own webpage and it is self-contained.

It was only available in anzio back in 1997 and when I want to implement, I will have to ask III for Millennium setup.

So it sounds like your library purchased it at some time in the past.

I was told public libraries usually used it for a community database and university libraries usually used it for special collections, journals, etc.

We are considering using it for fugitive facts database but it's still on the back burner for us.

Hope this helps.
