CORRESPONDANTS For each country we indicated at least one major library; are also listed the libraries of the universities in which QUANHIST has a correspondant. Ultimately the list's objective would be to have at least one correspondant in each country. So long as the books themselves are not accessible on line, the role of the correspondants will remain essential (for instance by providing possible guidance in their field of specialization).

SOURCES Four different sources have been used to establish this catalog. a) Answers of list members about the libraries of their university. b) The "World of Learning" (1992 edition) c) The Internet Guide of libraries by B.Baron and M.-C. Mahe (1993) d) The experience of the interlibrary loan service of the University of Paris (at Jussieu) in dealing with foreign libraries. 3. INTERNET ADDRESSES As far as possible, Internet addresses have been checked; the outcome of such attempts has been indicated in the following way: - OK means that the connection has been established and that the library catalog could be accessed. - YES means that the connection has been established but that (for some reason) the catalog could not be accessed. - Absence of OK or YES indication means that the connection could not be established.; this does not mean that the procedure indicated is faulty; there are quite a number of reasons which may account for a (temporary) failure: time lag, local holidays, incompatibility of terminals or systems, etc. We did not detail the exit procedure, since it is almost always possible to exit by hitting the (Telnet) escape key. We did not specify whether for a given library the whole catalog or only part of it is accessible; since the computerization of libraries' catalogs is an on going process such an information would become obsolete very quickly. ============ FOOTER TO QUANHIST.RECURRENT POSTING ============ * To post a message to this list, send it to QUANHIST.RECURRENT@cs.muohio.edu. * To get all the messages posted to this list only once a day, send the message "set QUANHIST.RECURRENT mail digest" to lists@cs.muohio.edu. * To view past posting to this list, look in the directory "List Archive" in the Cliometric Society Server.
