I've checked our access to a few of the titles on the list and we have
it, for current and older issues. There were some pages of the CSAS
Bulletin that were missing or misfiled at Wiley. We're using SFX. That
is not an endorsement of the product, by the way, just an FYI.

We have all of our AnthroSource URLs listed as http:// www.anthrosource.net/loi/xxxx (xxxx standing for the title's abbreviation).  I looked at it and got an error message that the page couldn't be found.  I dropped the /loi/xxxx, and was able to connect to AnthroSource.
