As librarians increasingly try to use their online catalogs to do what used to be done with their card shelflists, they are realizing that some catalog designers and vendors have not paid enough attention to online shelf-order classification access. This article compares the call number searching abilities of eight prominent, mature library systems: VTLS, Inlex, Innovative Interfaces, Inc., Data Research Associates (DRA), Geac Advance, Dynix, SIRSI, and NOTIS. Using five criteria that are important to catalogers, the authors tested and rated each system for its suitability as an online shelflist.
