Abstract
Libraries that provide document delivery services have traditionally adopted new technologies to acquiring documents from or supplying documents to other institutions. Microfilm, photographic reproduction, electro‐mechanical image storage and retrieval, xerography, electronic order transmission, and document facsimile transmission are all examples of new technologies applied over the course of time to document delivery. Currently being considered as being applicable to document delivery is optical disc technology. The characteristics of optical disc‐based systems are discussed and compared to current document delivery systems. The future role of optical disc technology in document delivery systems is predicted.
