We also have ABI-Inform and Newspaper Source. Newspaper Source is delayed by one day. We recently received a bill for ABI Inform for one Citation hit= $1.00; for one full-text retrieval =$5.00. We are rethinking ABI-Inform subscription, as it is no longer subsidized for us and we dropped ProQuest in 2006, prior to the beginning of my employment here. Considering all of the electronic news feeds and RSS capabilities, newspapers in proprietary databases are becoming less and less cost effective. Sharon A.

We are considering doing this for 3 newspaper titles (New York Times,= Wall Street Journal, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel) using ProQuest's Digital = Microfilm. What do your users think? What problems have you encountered? Are there other similar products? I received several requests to post a summary back to the list. So, hear g= oes... SUMMARY: Most libraries are the process of deciding whether or not to make the switc= h. Below is a summary of pros/cons based on feedback from this list and fe= edback from my library. This summary is limited to Proquest's Digital Micr= ofilm product. Pros: **No MF equipment required **Accessible from any computer with Internet access **Multiple, simultaneous users **Print, crop, email, save images **Perpetual Access to years paid for Cons: **Extra $$$ (5% more than traditional film) **Interface clunky & slow **Not keyword searchable, must know title, issue, date, page **A transitional format? **No usage statistics **Doesn't work well with SFX. Can link to main page, but not individual ne= wspaper titles or articles **If canceled, receive content on DVDs. There were some concerns about the Tasini decision. The Proquest rep I am = working with clarified that it is not an issue with their product. "Digita= l Microfilm is created from the film, therefore the entire paper is represe= nted. You will have the ability to crop, resize the articles. So, yes you= can 'technically' manipulate the paper. Our rights and permissions dept h= as worked through legal issues with each individual newspapers. With that = in mind, I would treat the Digital Microfilm in a similar fashion as the pa= per or film copies of the paper as they fall under 'fair use'."

I thought we did, but apparently Serials Solutions hasn't gotten wind of this change yet. I went to Serials Solutions to try to "de-select" this title, but was not able to do so. I sent Serials Solutions a request about it, so they should hopefully get to that soon. Thank you for letting us all know about this problem. Sincerely, Barbara M.
