syst em that has a good serials module

Hello all,
We are presently looking to find an integrated library system that has a
good serials module. Since we are a medium-sized hospital library, we
have
looked at many smaller system and found out that many of the smaller
systems
cannot handle our serials very well. We have ~450 current subscriptions,
but
also order the subscriptions for all the other hospital departments,
which
means that we have over serials 3000 records in our database.

I would be very greatful for any experiences, recommendations, cautions,
etc. you can provide about the system you are using. Please, reply
directly
to me. I can summarize for the list if there is interest.

Thank you very much,
Hella
