The USENIX Online Library/Index is now available from uunet.
What Is It:
The USENIX online index is an electronically available
list of papers published by the USENIX Association and
related groups. The index is kept as a simple ASCII
file, in refer/bib format, sorted by author, and con-
tains information about papers published in USENIX
conference and workshop proceedings, newsletters, jour-
nal, and the like.
In some cases, electronically readable versions of full
papers or abstracts are also available. If a paper is
available online, this is indicated in its index entry.
The index is updated approximately monthly.
How to Get the Index:
The index is available online from uunet, either via a
mail server or anonymous ftp. The index is about 200K,
and available only in entirety. To get it, either
echo send bibliography | mail uunet!library
A (non-human) server will automatically return the
index to the sender of the mail.
Or, via anonymous ftp to uunet.uu.net:
ftp> get library/bibliography
To get a help file:
echo help | mail uunet!library
(There is no person associated with "library-request"
and it will never be read by human eyes.)
To Get an Online Paper:
As of this date, we have not yet set up the online
papers. When this capability is provided, we will
announce it on the net, along with retrieval information.
