"""Desktop research"" encompasses the various tools that a scholar requires
in the course of his or her work. The ""scholar's workstation"" of the
future will involve several software packages from a number of developers
to accomplish the tasks required in doing research and creating
publications. To function effectively, the programs must be able to
interact with each other and communicate data. A common user interface
will ease the learning of each new addition to the software repertoire.
A model workstation is discussed that allows searching of bibliographic
databases or library catalogs, the assembly of bibliographies, the ordering
and acquisition of documents, and the preparation of manuscripts. (The
workstations to support the concept of desktop research were provided
under an Apple Library of Tomorrow grant from Apple Computer,
Inc.)"
