Describes four widely used systems from their technical, financial, operational, retrieval, and bibliographic aspects, pointing out the strengths and weakness of each. Inevitably, much of the discussion compares their relative merits point by point. Concludes that the differences between them are much greater than would be expected. Presents criteria for evaluation that could be useful to users or potential users of any such service, or those who are involved in managing an information retrieval system. Non-technical, user-oriented writing. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
