MAPS-L:
I have just learned that FINALLY SilverPlatter Information has
released the Earth Sciences Disc. If you remember, OCLC marketed
this similar product as CD 450 Earth Sciences Data Disc for a few
years. I think it has been over two years since this data was
available. I have spoken with Elizabeth Marley (Marketing) of
SilverPlatter and has indicated that the disc is now available
from:
SilverPlatter
100 River Ridge Drive
Norwood, MA 02062-5026
617-769-2599
617-769-8763 FAX
800--343-0064
The disc has been available since late June, 1993. I think the
price is about $495.00 (annually ?) and is updated quarterly.
Please check with SilverPlatter to be sure of price etc.
The disk conatinas the same databases as the OCLC one:
USGS Library holdings since they joined OCLC (1979?)
ESDD, USGS Earth Science Data Directory
GEOINDEX, The USGS "Kit Fuller" geologic map indexes
(without the graphics, of course)
James O. Minton
Head, Cartographic Information Center
The University of Tennessee-Knoxville
