The 1991 Census on CD‐ROM: challenges for libraries
Abstract
The publication in 1993 of the 1991 Census on CD‐ROM by Chadwyck‐Healey makes the data much more accessible, cheaper and easier to use. The data is available in a variety of different formats to suit different user groups. A number of software products are available to assist the user in the exploitation of the Census data. The Census Data on CD‐ROM is particularly likely to be important in public and academic libraries. As with the development of any CD‐ROM based service there are a number of strategic and practical day‐to‐day issues that will need to be addressed.
