some links i found maybe worth checking for people into this diggin':
In 1990, King left the Institute and Ardis Hanson became the new library director. She continued the push to automate the library, adding four networked PCs and additonal CD-ROM titles. She added two online services, Grateful Med and Policy Information Exchange Online. In 1991, The Institute Library became the first USF Library to have internet access with its gopher. In 1992, it became the first USF Library to initiate Mosaic and have a homepage. Hanson began an electronic selective dissemination program, the "loop", covering grants information, legislative news, research news, table of contents of special topic journals, and routing of the first electronic psychology journal, Psycoloquy. Working with the Computer Support Center, Hanson was able to mount a web-based search engine to search the Library's holdings via Netscape and a streaming video database.
She obtained a grant from the Association of Mental Health Librarians to fund a three-part training videotape for librarians working with special populations and a twelve-part, bilingual audiotape series on "Issues in Aging and Mental Health". She worked with other USF Librarians as part of the USF Libraries Virtual Library Implementation Team in the design of the USF Libraries Virtual Library. Most recently she has been involved as a member of a development team to create Globalization Research data protal for the four university collaborative, Globalization Research network (University of South Florida, University of Hawai'i'-Manoa, The George Washington University, and the University of California - Los Angeles).

"The Packet Video Protocol (PVP) is a set of extensions to the Network Voice Protocol (NVP-II) and consists mostly of a data protocol for transmission of video data. No specific changes to the NVP-II protocol are necessary for the PVP."
