Please excuse the overlap. ------------------------------------------------------------------- ANNOUNCING LC MARVEL ------------------------------------------------------------------- The Library of Congress Machine-Assisted Realization of the Virtual Electronic Library (LC MARVEL) is now available over the Internet. LC MARVEL uses Gopher software and is therefore most easily accessed from another Gopher server or by using a PC-based Gopher client. POINT TO: marvel.loc.gov PORT 70 ( 140.147.2.15 ) Although direct telnet access is available, only 10 simultaneous external connections will be supported initially. We recommend accessing LC MARVEL through other Gopher servers or by using a PC-based Gopher client, because no usage restrictions are imposed. For direct connection, TELNET TO: marvel.loc.gov LOGON AS: marvel ------------------------------------------------------------------- The goal of LC MARVEL is to serve as the Campus-Wide Information System for the Library of Congress' staff and additionally to offer service to the U.S. Congress and constituents throughout the world. Although LC MARVEL is still experimental, it is now being made publicly available over the Internet. Please address all comments and reports of any technical problems experienced when using the system to: lcmarvel@seq1.loc.gov ------------------------------------------------------------------- ................................................................... .
