This post contains instructions for accessing the online catalogues
of two Canadian universities. The first (U of Toronto) is a MAJOR
research facility, and these instructions supercede those given in
the Art St. George internet library guide.

1) UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO

The University of Toronto library system has over 7 million volumes.
Enough said.

Telnet to vax.library.utoronto.ca (128.100.95.1) and logon as
"utlink" (no quotes) to the "Username" prompt. At that point a slick
menu takes over which has ample built-in help. ** THIS PROCESS
REPLACES THE FELIX SYSTEM **

2) WILFRID LAURIER UNIVERSITY

Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, has just
switched its on-line catalogue over from its old antiquated system to
a new Sequent machine. This means our catalogue is now available
form the internet. The WLU library presently consists of about
1,350,000 items including 555,000 volumes, 115,000 government
documents, and 600,000 microforms.

To access the online catalogue, telnet to mach1.wlu.ca (192.54.242.17)
and login as "public" (no quotes). When the dollar sign prompt appears,
enter "library" (no quotes), and the on-line catalogue will be loaded.
The system has a fully documented interactive menu, including exit
instructions. The system will expect vt100 terminals, I believe.

Feel free to disseminate this information.
Best wishes,
David.
