how can I solve following problem:
On a standalone Linux-PC I wish to locate several
databases in the directory ../pgsql/data, viz:

1. readers_DATABASE with about 20 tables    the readers_TABLE has follwing fields:        readers_id
readers_name       ...        ...
 

2. publication_DATABASE with about 40 tables    the publication_TABLE has following fields:        publication_id
publication_description        readers_id        ...        ...
 

3. other_DATABASE
4. ...

Is it possible to make following query:

SELECT publication_description FROM publication_DATABASE.publication_TABLE
WHERE  publication_DATABASE.publication_TABLE.readers_id =       readers_DATABASE.readers_TABLE.readers_id;

or have I to put all tables in one database.
