USING DBASEIII + IN ADMINISTRATION: The San Jose State University Library Experience
Abstract
Five years ago, the administration of Clark Libary, San Jose State University in California, contracted with a programmer to design a personal computer system to provide management information about the student payroll. Before this, information on budgeting for student personnel, hours worked, and costs were kept manually, requiring an inordinate amount of clerical time. Because DBASEII was the leading program for database management at that time, it was the program of choice. Since then, the resulting system has been upgraded to DBASEIII + and is being revised using DBASEIV.
