| Summary, etc. |
The telecommunication gap, between development and developing countries has played a major role in denying access to on-line data bases, in developing countries. The preceived importance of the role of information in the process of development has caused many developing countries to go to great lenghts to gain on-line access until such time as telecommunications facilities such as packet switching, are installed. Methods of indirect access to on-line data base are described with particular reference to the Chinese People's Republic and Egypt. The role of CD-ROM techonology as both temporary stoppage and long term solution to this problem is described with notes on the technology itself and its use as a publishing medium. The effort of 3 on-line data base producers, in developing CD-ROM data base with a particular eye on developing countries are described briefly: CAB International, (with CAB Abstract); Royal Tropical Institute, Nertherlands, (with Abstract on Tropical Agriculture and the TROPAG data base) and Library Association publishing Ltd. (with Library Information Science Abstracts -LISA). Possible application of CD-ROM to document delivery is mentioned briefly with reference to the ADONIS project. |
