Dynix, automation and development at Napier Polytechnic Available to Purchase

The Dynix system was purchased by Napier Polytechnic of Edinburgh in March 1990, replacing a mixture of manual and small‐scale automated processes. The paper outlines the reasons behind the choice, describes the implementation of the system to date, and discusses the library's development plans. The system is integrated with the Polytechnic network and public access microcomputers in the three major campus libraries.
