N2  - It has taken twenty years to realize UML's computerization plans. Initial plans in the 1970s were targetted at specific library tasks such as circulation and caaloguing. Solutions for the latter, when realized, were offline, batch mode and meant away processing. Conceptualization for computerization for all library processes on an integrated basis, linking up the total library university library system, with dedicated computers sited within the library, dated from the 1980s. Lack of funds prevented implementation for over a decade. In 1989, with adequate allocation from the Ministry of Education, UML was able to tender successfully for a turnkey system with mandatory external link solutions to the National Library of Malaysia and MIMOS.
