2.  GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE IBM LIBRARY READER INSTALLATION PROGRAM
_________________________________________________________________________

The IBM Library Reader installation program installs the IBM Library Reader
on an OS/2 or DOS workstation.  You can also use it to identify addition
drives if you move books around or add new drives after installation.

If you already have a BookManager READ licensed program, you do not need to
install the IBM Library Reader, because you can use your BookManager READ to
view the books in the IBM Online Library.  You should still use the IBM
Library Reader installation program to identify the your BookManager READ the
drives that will hold the books in the IBM Online Library.



3.  INSTALLING OR UPDATING THE IBM LIBRARY READER FROM A DISKETTE
_________________________________________________________________

These instructions assume that you are installing the IBM Library Reader from
a diskette because your OS/2 or DOS workstation does not have a CD-ROM drive
attached.  They also assume that you created the diskette using the
instructions in the book "IBM Online Library: Distributing and Customizing
the Library," or someone else created it and gave it to you.  The
IBM Library Reader should be in a directory named "\EZ2INST" on the diskette.

The installation program installs the IBM Library Reader on your hard disk.

1.  Insert the diskette into the diskette drive.

2.  Go to an OS/2 or DOS command prompt.

3.  Switch to the diskette drive that contains the IBM Library Reader.

    For example, if you are using diskette drive "A", type:

      a:

    If you have more than one diskette drive, you can use any one of them.

4.  Change to the directory on the diskette that contains the IBM Library
    Reader.  Type:

      cd \ez2inst

5.  Start the IBM Library Reader installation program.  Type:

      install

    When the program starts, follow the instructions on the screen.  If you
    need help filling in the items on the panel, move the cursor to the item
    you want help with, and press F1.
