Subject: IBYCUS Inquiry
Could someone send me specific information about the IBYCUS system--
particularly the vendor's address and general price ranges? I'm trying
to convince our library to buy the system but need official literature.
Is there any truth to the rumor that IBYCUS--my interest is mainly
in the TLL--is being adapted for use on MS-DOS machines? Thanks in
advance for any information.

Subject: _Wuthering Heights_ E-Text
I am looking for an electronic version of _Wuthering
Heights_, either full or partial. Even two or three
chapters of the text would suffice for my purposes, if
it is available. Can anyone in the HUMANIST community
be of assistance?

Saw this on the net this afternoon (comp.databases) I'll try to get time
to look it up. Do you know anything about this?

I've just read an interesting notice about the French project TGB
(Tre`s Grand Bibliote`que). It seems to be a large plan for creating
an electronic library, with online books, films, videos, and lots of
telecommunication sprinkled all over.
It was claimed that in 1995 3% of the holdings of ( ... the French
national library?) would be converted to electronic form as an
experiment or study for the TGB.
Does anyone know anything more about this? Are they planning to use
some kind of mark-upped etext documents, or only scanned documents?
