1) The Resource Library:
A series of CD-ROMs which are compilations of applications along
with sample data files, devoted to a specific topic, gathered
from sources throughout out the world.
The extensive collections of the Internet, Compuserve, Genie,
BIX and other BBSs have been intensively reviewed for hundreds
of hours to acquire these applications which represent the most
advanced, up to date, programs in their field.
The resource lists and FAQs ( Frequently Asked Questions) of
the Internet's news.groups have been used as a guide in
selecting the most often requested and praised applications in
creating these compilations.
Many applications and data files have been specifically created
by our staff of programmers and graphic artists for these
CD-ROMS. These discs are a valuable resource which can be found
nowhere else.
Knowledge Media's Resource CD-ROMs are MULTI-PLATFORM
compatible. They have been recorded in the generic ISO 9660
standard file format. This format was specified to be a
portable file format for all common computer systems. Readers or
device drivers are available for most computers. The files are

required to access them. These CD-ROMs are for use by MSDOS,
