The 1993 post-AGM meeting of the Scottish branch of the Institute of Information Scientists focussed on the principles and practices of networking CD-ROMs. Stephen Duncan presented an evaluative overview of the technical options for networking CD-ROMs, contrasting peer-to-peer and client-server approaches, and also new options for sup porting CD-ROMs directly from LAN operating systems. Then Evelyn Simpson described the practical process of implementing a CD-ROM network for the library at the Manchester Business School (MBS), including non-technical issues such as training and licensing.
