When the operation is complete it will have about 75 thousand bibliographical entrees. All entrees and abstracts are being written by to grow. The information that will be available through the automated system would never be possible any other way. "With everything listed by author, title, subjects and keywords, it averages out to about 40 listings per docu- ment," Mrs. Williamson said. 'That doesn't work very well with 3x5 cards." The slowest part of automating the system is preparing the abstracts and picking out the key words. "Each worker can do about one thousand documents a year," according to Mrs. William- 1 son. Besides aiding Dugway workers, the system will allow Aberdeen Proving Ground and other agencies access to DPG documents with permission.
