 The system was later known as the Library Computer System, but is most commonly referred to by the acronym LCS.The system was notable for its decentralized organization, allowing library users in any given branch of the library to view what was available in any other branch.In an interview with "Technicalities" in 1985, Atkinson stated, "The only way I can see in a decentralized world to maximize library use is to provide, at the varying sites, the ability to borrow freely throughout the campus."
