Angelina -

For an example of a Windows interface to a catolag, check out WISLiR, in 
use at UW-Milwaukee and UW-Madison.  In order to access it remotely, you 
need to download software.  Info about the interface and the link to 
download is available at  http://www.library.wisc.edu

Or maybe you want to run over to GML at UWM to check it out in person.
