- The easiest way to get to a bunch of libraries would be to connect
- to the Internet Gopher at Univ. of Minnesota (libraries/library
- catalogs via telnet). (telnet consultant.micro.umn.edu, if you
- aren't already running your own gopher client)
-
- If you want lists & instructions, there is Billy Barron's
- guide and Art St. George's guide. They may already be on
- a gopher somewhere, ask veronica.
-
- To ftp Billy Barron's guides, ftp ftp.unt.edu, login as anonymous
- and then cd library. There are ascii, post script, etc. formats.
-
- To get St. George's list, send a message to listserv@umnvma.bitnet,
- body should contain "get library package".
-
- This information was taken shamelessly from Ed Krol's _The Whole
- Internet Catalog & User's Guide_. (I knew the items, but not
- the addresses).
