dc.description.abstractDissemination of the right information to the right user, at the right time, at the right cost is the grass root principle of any information system. For which, the IT (Information Technology) helps in many ways, which is right from the invention of a personal computer to CD-ROM (Compact Disk-Read only Memory) technology. CD-ROM technology is mainly used in the intormetion storage and retrieval operations, which helps to handle the large volume of data (which can be textual,numerical, graphical) in a effective, accurate and faster way. In this information explosion era, culling out the required information is a challenging task to the librarians and information professionals. To succeed in this situation using the traditionally available information dissemination methods are not ideal and advisable. The ideal solution to handle such a large volume of data is the application of CD-ROM technology, the one which is quite cheaper and economical too. This paper deals about the general characteristic features of CORaM databases, hardware and sottwere requirements to set up a CD-ROM work station, popular CD-ROM databases available in various subjects, and the special benefits of CD-ROM databases, etc.en_US
