MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director of Administration

Director, Policy and Planning
Assistance in Developing an Automated Reference Center
for the Publications Review Board
1. The DCI has directed me to ensure that necessary personnel and
other resources are available for development of an automated data stora e
and retrieval system to,support the Publications Review Board.
2. A recently-completed study performed jointly by DDA/ODP and
NFAC/OCR recommended assignment of a full-time professional data base
manager to the PRB Executive Secretariat. I have acted to fill this
position. The study also concluded the next step to be taken is a
file design/requirements study, which will require three months time
from an indexer and a computer svstems specialist working alongside
the data base manager.
3. I will notify you when the data base manager is in place.
At that time, I will also ask you to provide the necessary experts
to work with that person; i.e., an indexer from OCR and a computer systems
specialist from ODP.
4. Many thanks for the cooperation we have received on this project
to date. Special thanks should go to
for their collaboration on an excellent preliminary study.
