KEYWORD-INDEX. A Computer oriented personal reference retrieval system^[*]

In order to facilitate organization of personal reference systems a computer oriented retrieval system, KEYWORD-INDEX, has been developed. Using this system, the computer is used to generate a keyword listing of an investigator’s private files with an associated index. This system has a great deal of flexibility which is not available with traditional reference cards.

Um die Anlage einer persönlichen Literaturdokumentation zu erleichtern, wurde ein elektronisches Retrieval-System, KEYWORD-INDEX, entwickelt. Hierbei dient der Computer zur Herstellung von alphabetischen Schlüsselwort-Listen der privaten Literatursammlung des einzelnen Wissenschaftlers. In Bezug auf Flexibilität übertrifft das System die traditionellen Karteikartensysteme.
