<p class="MsoNormal">Our library is under-going massive budget cuts and downsizing. Right now, I'm focusing on eliminating any and all duplication of indexing, and was hoping to use the old JISC, later known as ADAT tool, but it appears to have been completely
 dismantled.  Does anyone know of a good substitute? Or a method that doesn't involve comparing long title lists?<o:p></o:p></p>
