ContainerContents
BOX 19-29; 66-68; 82-105 Automated Systems Office, Office of the Information Systems Specialist, and Information Systems Office
Office files from the MARC Development Office, which had been disbanded in 1977. Functions had been divided among the Automated Systems Office, the Network Development and MARC Standards Office, and the Automation Planning and Liaison Office. These items had been transferred to the Automated Systems Office and had been placed in storage with the Central Services Division. Some of the office files from the Office of the Information Systems Specialist and most of the files from the Information Systems Office from about 1964-1977, with some items from the Automated Systems Office dating from the early 1980s, have also been placed in storage with the Central Services Division. Although there are some items related to the MARC Pilot Project, the MARC system, and the MARC Development Office, most of these files deal with the automation efforts taking place before MARC or outside the scope of MARC.
Arranged in three subseries: Automated Systems Office/MARC Development Office; Office of the Information Systems Specialist; and Information Systems Office
