What is BRS Simulator (corrupted disk)?

BRS is a company located in Latham, New York. The people at BRS collect databases from various producers, coordinate these databases, and make them available to the public. BRS/Search is the software that has been developed for the purpose of allowing the databases to be searched.

A database is a body of information that is stored electronically and that can be retrieved electronically. There are many different kinds of databases; we are concerned with bibliographical databases.

A search is a process whereby we retrieve information from a database. In this case we will use BRS/Search to retrieve bibliographical information from BRS databases.

A simulator is developed whenever there is good reason to avoid exposing people initially to the real environment they will be working in. We are providing you with the BRS Search Simulator because searching is expensive, and the Simulator will expose you to the process of searching at no on-line cost. It will also allow you to become familiar with searching at home or in your dorm, on your own Apple Macintosh.

This manual includes the information you will need to make profitable use of the BRS Search Simulator, as well as the basic information about BRS/Search that you will need to conduct your own searches.
