We have a patron trying to get this article: "Alkali Metals Plus Silica Gel: Powerful Reducing Agents and Convenient Hydrogen Sources." Journal of the American Chemical Society v.127:no.26(July 2005): pp 9338-9339. The link to the article (direct or DOI) does not appear to work. We are pretty sure this is a problem with the database and not with connectivity on our end, as we can access other articles from the same issue fine. We get a message that says "ERROR: The requested article is not currently available on this site."

I've been working with serials off & on (mostly on) for almost 25 years. Starting in high school, then public libraries, academic, corporate, and legal (+ variations) libraries. Part of what still gets me up in the morning is the variety and challenge of a constantly changing environment. I always thought of monographs as a bit boring whereas working with serials has a built in chaos factor. Title changes, frequency changes, format options, cessations, mergers, cataloging rules, price increases, receipt issues, delivery breakdowns, vendor/publisher relations, claiming, shrinking staffing, new/upgrading software & tools... The list seems infinite. Many librarians view serials as way too much trouble to specialize in but for me they're interesting, kind of like the Chinese proverb "May you live in interesting times" but in a good way! Hope this helps and I'm happy to add more if you have specific questions.
