Paleg Continues Ta CamputErize Paley Library was also introduced to the new technology of the 1980 ' s. A computerized circulation system made it easier for students to use the library ' s resources. A major part of the new system was the bar codes that were installed on all library items. Each student ' s ID card also bore an individualized bar code. A laser beam read the bar codes, and the book and stu- dent codes were stored in a computer. Eventually, every book, magazine, record and document in Paley ' s collection will be stored in the computer. All the libraries in the Paley system, including those at TUCC and Ambler, will eventually receive a similar system. The computers greatly improved circulation information. Stu- dents used a terminal to see if a book they required was taken out and when it was scheduled to be returned. In some cases, the computer was able to help students reserve books. As more and more books are listed in the computer, it will become the basis for the card catalog. The Paley system had the ability to interface with other such systems at Yale, Princeton, Rutgers, Michigan State, New York University and several other members of the Research Library Group. Returning a book to the library was even easier because of the new system. You just dropped the book into the bin under the circulation desk. A library staff member re-read the book code, and the book was placed back i nto circulation. Eventually, a Temple student with a home computer will be able to hook directly into Paley ' s computer catalog.
