Automation in libraries is not new, but serials automation is still relatively untried. There are a number of reasons for this, not least the complexity of automating serials control. This paper will examine some of the possible reasons for choosing , a microcomputer system and identify some problems and pitfalls which may occur on the way. While no attempt will be made to give an overview of microcomputer systems currently on the market, reference to such systems will be made.
