Hi,

I am trying to gather information on the importance of
cd-roms in
library collections.  With the advent of the Internet and
the move to dvd 
technology, do you still feel that cd-roms are worth
acquiring?
Also, what types of information do you feel is better when
presented on 
cd-rom than on the Internet.  Any insights would be
helpful.  I work in
a small library in Lyndonville, Vermont.  

Thank you. Cheryl McMahon
