With a Computer, a Modem, and
basic communications software, you can dial directly into numerous
library catalogs, although this number is quickly
decreasing.
Of course, searching distant
libraries by direct dial-in can become expensive because of the
long-distance telephone charges.
The other major problem is that
the text-based OPAC interfaces are often less easy to use to than
Web-based ones.
