Abstract
It is now possible while located in an office or home to search large journal collections, a Central Intelligence Agency world map database and world fact book, federal grant programs, law library catalogs, United States Supreme Court decisions, public opinion poll data, hundreds of general and specialized library catalogs, and many other information sources via computer. This article is intended for those who presently make little use of computers but who want to become familiar with the advantages and likely problems associated with performing such searches using one of the databases available online (by telephone line) on the Internet and five commercial online services. The article also discusses other uses for telephone-computer combinations such as electronic mail (e-mail).
