The Libraries, using the structure of a Decision Team, selected the Biblio-Techniques Library & Information System (BLIS) as their online catalog in January 1983. Once the decision to go ahead had been made, the implementation process was under the aegis of the BLIS (later CLIO) Steering Committee. The Columbia University Libraries relied on a committee structure comprised primarily by staff from the Libraries and the Columbia University Center for Computing Activities (CUCCA) to implement the online catalog. This committee structure proved to be an effective way to implement such a system, although a costly one in terms of staff effort. |
