- RLIN offers an on-line bibliographic data base of descrip-
- tions of the holdings of research libraries and archives at
- over 100 universities and other institutions - a total of
- over 35 million records in July 1989. It includes entries
- for books, serials, archival materials (e.g., personal
- papers, governmental records), music scores, sound record-
- ings, visual materials (e.g., films and photographs), and
- computer files. Smaller subject-oriented data bases contain
- citations for articles in art and architectural periodicals;
- eighteenth-century English-language publications; art sales
- catalogs dating from the 1500s to the present; and research
- in the humanities scheduled for publication within the next
- two years. Records in RLIN may be searched by a wide array
- of indexes, including personal name, title word, subject
- phrase, and ISBN.
