Maas March 9, 1994 Telnet Discovery (TEL12JM) BUBL (A Bulletin Board for Libraries) Address: telnet sun.nsf.ac.uk (128.86.8.7,23) Logon: Janet Password: Host name: uk.ac.bath.bubl (or 0006012101300) Alternate Procedure: Address: bubl.bath.ac.uk (138.38.32.45) Logon: bubl BUBL is a British bulletin board that gives access to 88 different sites including Harvard Medical School and Nysernet and looks like a very interesting place to explore. It is heavily used, however, in prime time, i.e. early evening here in the states. A feature this month is the Follett Report, on libraries in the UK -- of possible interest to students of library management and policy. NOTE: the addresses above are different from the one given in our Harris2 file. That gave the address as Glasgow. Bubl has since moved to Bath. (Merely for the sake of a pun???? :-) ). Once you reach the Glasgow address, a friendly screen gives you all you need to know to get to the Bath address. JAN A.
