Abstract

A computer-based library catalog, called ROAD, using the same format as Australian Road Research Documentation or ARRD, was developed to handle new additions to the ARRB library from January 1984. The catalog was not publicly available; however, State Road Authority libraries were provided with passwords for this file. In response to the comments of ARRB library users, the feasibility of combining the ARRD and ROAD databases was explored, with the result that a new combined database called INROADS has just been mounted on CSIRO's AUSTRALIS network. The new file is available publicly to all users of AUSTRALIS and it should prove a boon to anyone interested in roads information in Australia.
