EBSCO free magazines Karen Chobot 05 Jan 2000 17:01 UTC

Lately, EBSCO has taken to sending us free subscriptions to magazines,
apparently as an appreciation gift.  I have written to them twice asking
them not to do this, as the items sent are fairly marginal to our
collection and I don't want to bother with cataloging them or dealing with
them.  If they really want to give us an appreciation gift, they could
reduce the service fee!

Are any of the rest of you getting these, and how are you handling them?  I
hate to throw them out, but I really don't need YM...

Maybe if the EBSCO folks see comments here, they might reconsider their
program.

Thanks, Karen.
