The USENIX Online Library/Index is now available from uunet.

What Is It:
     The USENIX online index is an electronically  available
     list  of papers published by the USENIX Association and
     related groups.  The index is kept as  a  simple  ASCII
     file,  in  refer/bib format, sorted by author, and con-
     tains information  about  papers  published  in  USENIX
     conference and workshop proceedings, newsletters, jour-
     nal, and the like.

     In some cases, electronically readable versions of full
     papers  or abstracts are also available.  If a paper is
     available online, this is indicated in its index entry.

     The index is updated approximately monthly.

How to Get the Index:
     The index is available online from uunet, either via  a
     mail server or anonymous ftp.  The index is about 200K,
     and available only in entirety.  To get it, either

             echo send bibliography | mail uunet!library

     A (non-human)  server  will  automatically  return  the
     index to the sender of the mail.

     Or, via anonymous ftp to uunet.uu.net:

             ftp> get library/bibliography

     To get a help file:

             echo help | mail uunet!library

     (There is no person associated  with  "library-request"
     and it will never be read by human eyes.)

To Get an Online Paper:
     As of this date, we have not  yet  set  up  the  online
     papers.   When  this  capability  is  provided, we will
     announce it on  the  net, along with retrieval information.
