Hi, I'm sending along a link to a survey on SciFinder/Access to Chemical Literature developed by the Chair of our Chem Dept--he's already sent it to chemistry colleagues, and I thought it would be useful to also gather data from librarians. He was agreeable, so I'm cross-posting the link to the survey on various lists. Here is his original explanatory email text when he first sent the survey:
"I am currently in discussion with the library about our access to the literature.  Right now we have a subscription to SciFinder Scholar as our entry point, and then we use inter-library loan or pay per article services to get full text.  Some of my colleagues (Chemists) find SciFinder to be less than useful and access the literature through other non-College methods that are not available to all faculty and students.  The cost of the SciFinder subscription has also increased significantly over the last 10 years and the Library is asking if we should keep the subscription.  I am interested in what other schools are doing to deal with this issue, in particular, smaller schools who wish to maintain their ACS approval.
