Even as the University celebrated the official opening of its new on-line computer catalog, the director of the Harvard University Library said yesterday more technological innovations must be made to keep the library up to date...
...with HOLLIS is that of access (a problem with all user-oriented computing at Harvard). HOLLIS is not presently accessible from campus networks (or is so far not documented as such). From a terminal in the Science Center, it is impossible for a student or faculty member to integrate catalog information into a text file or a mail message. In the last year, I received in my computer mailbox cataloging information from a librarian at the library of the University of Toronto; but I suspect it will be a long time before I can send a computer mail message...

The catalog of punishments seems medieval -- Savonarola meets Bosch -- even as it taps baby boomers' fears of decaying vitality and eviscerated dreams. For Cronenberg the body is a haunted house whose rumblings trigger lust, mystery and excruciating pain in the poor tenant. This property is condemned...
