The aim of DTV's Article Database Service (DADS) is to offer our end users a whole new generation of library services with integrated search and browse facilities, a common user interface and direct electronic document delivery - all accessible from their own desks. The system should handle bibliographic data, including abstracts as well as articles in full text and table-of-contents data. Using an electronic article database service users can access a particular article or journal within seconds rather than hours or days typical for paper based collections. Large collections of material can be searched simultaneously and retrieved instantly. There is also the possibility for active dissemination of information based on "interest profiles" of users, ie current awareness services.
