Mondo shtuff from around the internet, all about MELVYL!

Melvyl: Melvyl

My botty best at summarizing from Wikipedia: the Melvyl union catalog is produced by the California Digital Library . it is named after the library pioneer who invented the Dewey Decimal System . in 1981, library patrons were able to access an online catalog of UC library books using a computer terminal . at one point, the Division of Library Automation maintained their own computer network . the mainframe system, retired in 2003, was replaced using commercial software from the integrated library system vendor Ex Libris . a legacy telnet mode retired in 2007 .
