                      HUMAN GENE MAPPING LIBRARY
The Human Gene mapping Library at New Haven (HGML), funded by the Howard
Hughes Medical Institute, consists of five interconnected databases.
These databases are of particular interest to those working in human
genetics; they are currently maintained on an IBM 4341 mainframe computer
at Yale University.  The databases are:
 LIT      literature citations and abstracted information
 MAP      mapped genes information
 PROBE    information on probes
 RFLP     restriction fragment length polymorphism data
 CONTACT  names and addresses of researchers to contact
          for probes

Online database access is possible from the UK but the IPSS telephone
charges have to be paid for by the user.  Charges for computer usage
are at present absorbed by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute.
To access the computer from a terminal connected to a PAD on Janet,
first call the IPSS Gateway:

CALL LON.PSS
or
CALL 00004000004096

Then, using your PSS account identifier and password call the Yale
computer on Telenet:

(XX10,SECRET).NFS-31102030002100/GENES

At the ENTER CLASS prompt type VMF and press RETURN a few times.
When asked ENTER TERMINAL TYPE respond with HCPY
The computer now ask for a LOGON userid.
You should obtain details of logging on and your own personal
password from:
