• CD-ROM is having a growing impact on U. S. medical library operations and services. End-user searching of computerized databases has increased substantially since the introduction of CD-ROM. Professional searching on CD-ROM is starting to take hold, and promises to challenge the online industry. Specialized applications are becoming available such as full text and cataloging databases, and computerized training programs on interactive videodisks.Librarians need to make important choices on which CD-ROM products to acquire, and whether to access data in print, online, or on CD-ROM. The role and image of librarians are changing as they become computer specialists and teachers of end-user searching as well as performing traditional library duties.The future of CD-ROM will include networks and dial-access. The capacity of both disks and readers will increase. CD-ROM applications in medical libraries will expand as prices decrease and interfaces with other technologies become possible. An on-going dialog between librarians, vendors, and CD-ROM producers is necessary for this wonderful new technology to be used to best advantage.
