A methodology for categorically describing computer-based information systems was developed and applied to six university-based, NSF-supported systems.The systems under study all operate as retail information centers primarily serving campus communities by accessing large commerciallyavailable data bases using 3rd generation computer configurations.The systems vary in design phil- osophy, mode of user service, transferability characteristics, and operational status.A sum- mary matrix is included.
