Do you go to sleep at the end of ABCUs Nightline and wake up to NPRUs
Morning Edition? Have we got a database for you!
	Broadcast News is a CD-ROM product that contains the full
transcripts of the news and current affairs programming of ABC, CNN,
NPR, and PBS. Broadcast News is updated monthly and provides free
transcripts for approximately 60 programs such as 20/20, PrimeTime
Live, World News Tonight, Larry King Live, Moneyline, All Things
Considered, and Washington Week in Review. Trial transcripts as
covered by CNN are also available.
	With each update Broadcast News highlights RCurrent Issues.S
The most recent disk lists such topics as AIDS, capital punishment,
genetic engineering, home- lessness, religious cults, right-to-die,
and womenUs rights. When a current issue is selected, not only can you
obtain transcript citations, you can read a chronology of events
related to the topic and identify pertinent books, journal and
newspaper articles.
	Broadcast News has two search modes: RguidedS for beginners
and an advanced mode. It is searchable by topic keyword, show,
network, date, host, and guest. Transcripts can be printed or
downloaded to a formatted diskette.
	Broadcast News is available on CD-ROM in the Undergraduate
Library, Capen Hall. For further information on Broadcast News contact
