When we first started thinking about this we too looked at 
computer magazines to see what they were doing. They were the 
authorities then, but I find this less compelling now. Our 
policy depends more on the logic of our specific field, i.e., 
libraries. Libraries catalog software products; they catalog CD-ROMs; 
they catalog data files--just as they do other pieces of intellectual 
property like books, audio recordings, and photographs, the titles of 
which we of course ital. And unlike a stapler, all these items can be 
copyrighted.
