The N & O college
Article Abstract:
The News and Observer of Raleigh, NC, decided to acquire databases for the use of its reporters in 1990. The newspaper realized that the use of computer databases would give them an edge over their competitors. The company had already formed the infrastructure for its computer network. This has allowed the paper to publish at least one computer-assisted story since Feb 1, 1992. The paper is presently trying to solve the limitations of its computer system.
