Description
Pascal Programming for Libraries is a practical introduction to computer programming designed specifically for library and information center applications. A graded text, this book provides detailed examples of straightforward programs, each fully illustrated and clearly explained. The examples begin with relatively simple computer code and progress to more complex examples using the highly acclaimed language TURBO Pascal, now widely used on personal computers. The applications illustrated deal with such operations as document retrieval, sorting, keyword indexing, selective dissemination of information, and rudimentary technical processes in libraries.
