Subject:      New Kodak Photo CD product
To: Multiple recipients of list IMAGELIB

A colleague here informs me that he recently read about a new Kodak Photo
CD product called PHOTO CD CATALOG.  This now joins the line of other CD
products (the standard format, Pro-CD, Porfolio and others).  Apparently
PhotoCD Catalog can hold up to 4,400 thumbnail images on one disk *as well
as browser software.*

We have requested more info from Kodak about this product, but in the meantime: Does anyone on this list know about it first-hand? It could be just the ticket for institutional scanning projects (such as ours) where the main need is for an easy and reliable search engine to locate thumbnail images that will in turn refer users to a copy negative.
