Abstract:
Image caption on page 107 of the book US National Library of Medicine: "The library's Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System (MEDLARS) III Task Force gathered for a meeting in 1980. Clockwise around the table from left: Ben Erdman, Betsy Humphreys, Duane Arenales, Richard Dick, PhD, Grace McCarn, John Cox, Laura Kassebaum, Lillian Kozuma, and Joseph Leiter, PhD; not pictured: Robert Schultheisz. MEDLARS II of the early 1970s added an online searching capability to MEDLARS. In 1980, the library completed the functional specifications for MEDLARS III, which sought to provide both greatly enhanced user functionality and more rational and integrated data creation and library processing capabilities."
