            The Software Development Group of Data Research  Associates,
            Inc.  has made over four million cataloging records from the
            Library of Congress LCMARC service available to  researchers
            via  the  Internet.  This database contains the records from
            the Books All, Maps, Music, Serials,  and  Visual  Materials
            services  as distributed by the Cataloging Distribution Ser-
            vice.  The database contains the machine readable cataloging
            of  the  Library  since  1968  (or  later  for some types of
            materials).

            Guest users  may  search  the  database  by  author,  title,
            author/title,  ISBN,  ISSN,  LCCN,  as  well  as  qualifying
            searches by language, copyright date, or cataloging  format.
            Subject  and  keyword  searching  is  not available to guest
            users.  Additional types of searches may  be  available  for
            users with Data Research accounts.
