       TOPICS AND DEMONSTRATIONS

       The Internet is a loosely governed amalgam of networks offering
       global data access and communication. At the next meeting of
       the SDSLUG, we'll be investigating some of the new tools for
       accessing information from data services and research
       institutions across the Internet. Corporate users may also find
       the discussion valuable in establishing corporate-wide data
       services within their organization.
       
       Topics will include:

       WAIS and Gopher:
	 Two new protocols and associated tools for getting infor-
       mation when you don't know where it is or in what format.

       Search-It:
	 SunSoft's new full-text search-and-retrieval application for
       the Solaris software environment.  This new application acts as
       a personal reference librarian that quickly and easily locates
       on-line business data such as reports, proposals, and
       correspondence stored anywhere on the corporate network. In
       addition, SearchIt enables users to manage and manipulate this
       information for their specific needs through its easy-to-use
       intuitive interface.

       ARCHIE:
         An interactive Internet Archive librarian.

       MELVYL:
	 The University of California's Library Catalog service. 

       Commercial Services:
	  We'll have material available from a wide variety of
       commercial data services accessible over the Internet, along
       with information from commercial providers of Internet access
       in San Diego.

       And finally, November 10th is the day that Sun will be
       announcing new products! Sun will be here to talk about their
       latest offerings.
