Posie,
If you are interested in comparing journal coverage between databases,
(fulltext only, or complete title coverage) you can use the "Resource
Comparison" tool of CUFTS (http://cufts.lib.sfu.ca). The Resource
Comparison tool provides rapid analysis of journal titles and coverage
dates in over 245 different electronic collections.  The URL is
http://cufts.lib.sfu.ca/tools.shtml

Regards,
Don Taylor
