Abstract
Test evaluates feasibility of CD‐ROM as document supply medium. The hypothesis goes like this. If document supply centres could cut the cost of filling requests for journal articles, and continue to charge the same price for their service, publishers of the journals could share in the resultant increase in profits. One way to cut costs, the hypothesis continues, may be to replace the labour‐intensive photocopying procedures currently practised at the supply centres with document delivery on CD‐ROM. The new technology could also enhance publisher/library relationships by improving the scope of service to library users.
