Candidates for _Onion Patch(sm): New Age Public Access Systems_

[Gerry Mckiernan]

       *  Candidates for _Onion Patch(sm): New Age Public Access Systems_ *

   I am greatly interested in profiling additional projects, research, products and services that support or demonstrate alternative approaches to Second Generation OPACs and other current online public catalogs and indexes for my Web clearinghouse _Onion Patch(sm)_. The address for _Onion Patch(sm) is:

             http://www.public.iastate.edu/~CYBERSTACKS/Onion.htm 

 _Onion Patch(sm)_ also includes descriptions of novel visual interfaces with features and functionalities that potentially can enhance public access systems. 

    I am *particularly* interested in any and all commercial services that exist or 
are currently in development that can seamlessly manage Embedded Multimedia
in E-journals.

   As Always, Any and All contributions, queries, critiques, comments, questions, concerns, etc., etc. regarding this
post are Most Welcome.
