College catalogues

Does the contractual characteristic of the college catalog somehow
interfere with adding links and cross links throughout the text?  Unlike
the foremost commercially-published electronic subject monographs, most
college catalogues have yet to exploit aggressively such linking
opportunities.  Yet the number of times the average undergraduate needs
to consult the college catalog would seem sufficient reason for such
full exploitation using these electronic capabilities.

Are there examples of college catalogs which have pushed the envelope as
far as some of the electronic monographs?
