In this paper, we discuss the UCL the C-ODA project, working with a large database of journal articles of chemical journal in several compound document forms (text/image). As part of the project, there is a need to convert a large mass (approximately 500 000 pages of technical papers) of SGML documents into an ODA representation; our tools for, and experiences in, converting these articles are described. We provide a number of interfaces to access that data, including WAIS, PixLook and SuperBook. Access is provided over various forms of networkLAN, Internet and ISDN in particular. Our experiences with putting up the databases, and with the users accessing the data is presented.
