Very possibly.

I vaguely remember using putty on port 22 which i thought was ssh, but maybe it was telnet. we were leaving the 90s by then, so I think ssh was around. Might also have been different protocol on the uni LAN vs WAN connections.

The libraries I remember might have been direct terminals to local server. Few catalogs were available even on the uni-wide LAN. No big deal really since you're going to have to go there to find the book anyway.

The catalog room was an acceptable place to have a chat or lament the size of the reading list.
