IV. A University Library System 51 Campus. A campus collection should contain material likely to be needed within one day, and all material needed to support the instructional programs of that campus. In addition, each campus will have special collections and major resources for research, particularly in disciplines or programs that receive heavy emphasis on that campus. The stronger such research collections are, of course, the more they must be considered a central resource for faculty and students on other campuses, so access to all who need them must be assured. The primary means of identifying and locating material within campus collections will be by public consultation of on-line terminals connected to a computer-controlled bibliographic data base. The advantages of this approach are discussed later, but it should provide much more effective bibliographic access than at present. Cataloging will be done through use of on-line systems which provide momentary access to large data bases for this specific purpose. No change in the organizational arrangements or governance of campus libraries is contemplated or required. It should be emphasized that the plan does not intend a leveling or homogenization of campus library systems. There will continue to be major collections of research materials and specialized resources on the campuses, because they serve important research needs not only on the campuses but throughout the University. Region. Two regional systems are proposed, one in the North and one in the South. Each region should contain, either on one of the campuses within the region or in a regional compact shelving facility, materials likely to be needed within two days or less. To facilitate joint use of the collections within a region, existing arrangements for direct borrowing of materials on other campuses will be continued and improved, and the intercampus bus system will also be continued. Materials within the region will be identified through on-line terminals, and delivered to the campus libraries by the intercampus bus service. In addition to little-used materials for which space no longer exists on the campuses, the regional facility will also contain important research materials which can be shared throughout the region;
