INFORONICS ADDS PLENUM'S CATALOGS TO TITLENET

Database processing for publishers Library automation services

Littleton, MA -- September 18, 1995 -- Plenum Publishing Corporation has
added its catalogs to TitleNet, the Internet site for browsing and
searching publishers' catalogs. Plenum's catalog information includes
descriptive text, reviews, contents data, and audience focus for thousands
of titles.

A premier publisher with an established worldwide reputation for
excellence, Plenum provides the international scientific community with
timely, state-of-the-art professional books and journals that cover a
broad spectrum of fields--from biology and computer science, to physics,
chemistry, and math, as well as psychology and the social sciences under
its Plenum Press, Consultants Bureau and Human Sciences Press imprints.

Plenum also publishes outstanding books of general interest. Plenum Trade
offers scientifically curious readers accessible investigations of
contemporary science subjects, while Insight Books covers topics in
psychology, personal health and current social issues. Da Capo Press
publishes high-quality paperback reprints in a broad range of non-fiction
areas, including music history, the Civil War, film, theater and art.
Electronic databases essential to research, government and business
organizations are produced by IFI/Plenum Data Corporation.

"Using the Internet to reach our target audience is central to our
marketing strategy," says Jeanette Haglich, Advertising Manager at Plenum.
"And TitleNet's growing list of scholarly and reference publishers
presented an attractive site for Plenum's titles. We were also impressed
with TitleNet's database and Internet delivery capabilities, and with the
traffic it is generating."

TitleNet provides full searching of title information by author, title, and
keyword, as well as browsing by subject. TitleNet currently delivers over
100,000 accesses and over 6,000 order forms a week among its 37
participating publishers.

Providing Internet users with optimum access to Plenum's catalog
information was an important project requirement. To build the Plenum
catalog on the Internet, Inforonics converted database files for Plenum's
three imprints, then merged and indexed the data. Inforonics also created
links between titles and more than 175 series, which are automatically
displayed when users view title information.

Plenum's catalog is supported by Inforonics' multiple Internet connections
for high server reliability. Inforonics also provides network
administration and full systems maintenance.
