The Institute for Scientific Inform ation, the firm that pioneered the commercial development of systems for the selective dissemination of inform ation with its ASCA® systems, also leases ISI Magnetic Tapes. These tapes provide the only m ultidisciplinary data base in the world which provides access not only through word-search, but also through a unique method of citation indexing. If yours is a software firm, you m ay have a client who can use ISI Magnetic Tapes for in-house SDI and retrieval services. There are num erous successful ISI tape-based systems operating now in the United States, Canada and Europe. Your customer's could be the next. But every computer m an knows that it takes more than a computer and a debugged program to get a system operating on his specific computer. And our existing and future clients know this because we tell them so. Each customer starts out with SDI in m ind, and the software m en at each installation m ake changes tailored to the indi­ vidual client’s needs. W hile ISI provides the data base and basic util­ ity program, you provide the rest, according to your range of services. If you would like to work w ith a data supplier that understands your problems and those of your clients, then ISI is the place to seek out for a lecture-seminar that w ill tell you not only how to get more out of SDI personally, but also how your customers can get more out of you.
