As a graduate of the University of Michigan's Library school (I got my AMLS in 1986 and my Phd in 1992), I can remember the whole room full of these card catalogs when they were still on the same floor as the reading room and the reference desk, and I remember, too, when MIRLYN was first introduced. Since this was before Windows and other GUIs, it was a pain to use! Johan Koren, Assoc.
