Abstract
For twenty years this series of Clinics has explored nearly every aspect of library automation. Telecommunications has often been mentioned at these Clinics because automation projects of any scope nearly always involve pieces of computer equipment separated by more than a few feet. Whether the application is cataloging, public access, reference, or interlibrary loan, communication lines are usually an inescapable part of the system. While the divestiture of the Bell System and rapidly changing telecommunications technology have had great impact on the entire business community, our concern here is with their impact on libraries.
