The easiest way to produce a cd-rom product would be to replicate the microfilm (have the tiff images mirror the microfilm images, by date order, I assume). You could add a text file with a crude to complex index matching date/vol. & no. to a range of image file names. Or, with considerable effort, you could OCR all, or a reasonable portion of, the microfilmed text and provide an SGML marked-up text file(s) with pointers to the appropriate image of the page(s) and sell the data on cd-rom(s) for loading on an appropriate search engine which the end user would supply.Bob Henneberger INTERNET:mailto:bhennebe@uga.cc.uga.edu Computer Services WWW:www.libs.uga.edu Preservation services Compu$erv:73727,2615 University of Georgia Libaries Voice: 706-542-2131 Athens, GA 30602 FAX: 706-542-4144
