The query in December's Newsletter regarding the availability of off-site cooperative storage for back-up tapes drew only two responses. A health sciences library in Texas reported that several of the libraries in its region store OCLC archival tapes both with AMIGOS, the regional network in their area; and with MARCIVE, a San Antonio firm which produces a regional union catalog for twenty medical libraries in the South Central Region. A Pennsylvania respondent said that PALINET also offers an OCLC archival tape storage and maintenance program. As yet, no library has reported cooperative off-site storage of circulation system records.
