PROFILE |

Card catalogs rest in peace. Data Research Associates (DRA) gives librarians the luxury of filing the card catalog system under "Extinct." DRA is a systems integrator for libraries and other information providers. Nearly three-quarters of its sales come from installation, documentation, and other ancillary services. The company's systems manage library circulation and generate collection, use, and borrower reports for the library staff. Its systems are designed for all sizes and classes of libraries, including academic, business, institutional, and public libraries. The family of chairman, president, and CEO Michael J. Mellinger collectively owns 40% of DRA, which is being bought by library software firm SIRSI.
