VTLS CHOSEN BY NATIONAL LIBRARY OF SCOTLAND

The National Library of Scotland has selected VTLS (the Virginia Tech Library System) for the automation of its library and for network services it provides through SCOLCAP, the Scottish Library Network. Based on a Hewlett‐Packard 3000 Series 70 computer (later to be upgraded to a Series 950) with ten 571‐megabyte disc drives, the National Library of Scotland's VTLS system will be one of the largest single computer HP installations in the world. Initially it will support 80 on‐line terminals.
