"An ambitious project to identify information on Texas was the index to some 300 volumes prepared during the 1880's by Dr. Valentine Overton King. Although the index is of considerable interest because of the view it provides of the interests of a nineteenth-century Texan, it also remains a valuable tool for anyone using nineteenth-century Texas materials."--From the introduction

Final report of a library inter-network study demonstration and pilot model (Lib-Nat), by Southern Methodist University with
the cooperation of Texas Library Association, Reference Round Table and others by
Southern Methodist University(
Book
)
4 editions published in 1971 in English and held by 60 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
This project was an experimental effort to study, analyze, and understand interlibrary networks. The immediate purpose of the project was to develop methodologies for evaluating or analyzing networks; the ultimate purpose was to provide planning assistance to network funders, designers or operators. The project was conducted in four simultaneous phases. The Conceptual Model (Phase I) considered components of network design and performance and identified thirteen significant operational parameters. The Behavioral Model (Phase ii) simulated network operations through "game playing" and further confirmed the validity of the Conceptual Model. In Phase iii an effort was made to quantitatively analyze interlibrary networks in a Metropolitan Area. Significant operational variables were identified and measured. A Node-Network Dynamics Grid was developed to assist in evaluation and analysis of the Pilot Model Data. An Analytical Operations Research Model was developed in Phase iv to provide network planners with a tool for netowk performance prediction as a function of design options. A generalized network model called Lib-NAT (Library Network Analysis Theory) was developed and is presented. The methodologies developed in this project have been used by several states for network planning or evaluation and seem to be valid when properly applied. (Author/NH)
