Description:
|
The Network Library System (NLS) is the online public catalog of the libraries
|
at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and the University of
|
Wisconsin-Milwaukee. NLS supports separate online catalogs for each campus.
|
The UW-Madison online catalog contains more than 1.7 million titles cataloged
|
since 1976, located in 25 libraries on the campus and at the Center for
|
Research Libraries in Chicago. This represents roughly 50% of the collections.
|
The UW-Milwaukee catalog contains approximately 900,000 titles and represents
|
85% of the general collection.
|
Network Access:
|
If available on your system, please use tn3270 (telnet supporting 3270
|
emulation) to access blue.adp.wisc.edu When connected you are presented a menu
|
from which you select NLS1, the library catalog. (If you donUt know how your
|
function keys are mapped, TAB to the option you want and press ENTER.)
|
Telnet access is also available via a gateway machine providing the necessary
|
3270 emulation. From your local host use telnet to access nls.adp.wisc.edu.
|
You will be prompted to enter a terminal type. VT100 is the default, or you can
|
enter the command list to display a list of supported terminal types. Upon
|
entering a valid terminal type, select NLS1 from the menu displayed to connect
|
to the library catalog.
|
Upon entering NLS, a screen is displayed at which you either press ENTER to
|
search the Madison catalog or type Mil and press ENTER to search the Milwaukee
|
catalog.
|
To exit, enter the command exit on any screen to return to the Main Menu. Here
|
you select the option to quit. This returns control to your local host.
|
Who Can Use The Catalog:
|
The University of Wisconsin library catalogs for the Madison and Milwaukee
|
campuses are currently available to all interested parties.

Note on keyboard mappings:
|
Because keyboard mappings are de^ned by the tn3270 software on the
|
client's host computer, we are not able to tell you definitively how your
|
keyboard will be mapped. The following chart shows a selection of the tn3270
|
keyboard mapping used on many UW Madison VAX computers. These definitions
|
are also used when accessing NLS via telnet as they are provided by the 3270
|
software on the gateway machine.
|

|
