(With apologies for cross-posting)
The new release of the Copac service will go live on the morning of
Wednesday March 28th. Copac will be unavailable for a short period as
the changeover takes place.
- The Copac web site has been redesigned and fully revised. User guides
relating to the new version of the service will be available online and
for downloading. Printed documentation will also be available.
- The new Copac interface offers redesigned screens and a wider range of
facilities including new search fields, an OpenURL link in the Full
record display, and an RSS feed for automatic search updates.
- The new Copac database is in MODS XML format and allows search and
display of non-roman scripts such as Chinese and Arabic.
The trial version of the new interface and database is currently
