There are currently over 150 subscribers on SERIALST. Last week,
when the list was smaller, there was some discussion about computer
diskettes that accompany paper journals (how are libraries treating
these in the bibliographic record? Are you adding computer diskette
information to your volume holdings, particularly if the diskettes
contain material that supplements the paper version?). There was
also some discussion on electronic journals (are your institutions
subscribing to them, and if so, how do you process them and/or
make them available to users?). Please feel free to comment on
these, or other serials related issues that you may be coping with
in your institutions. With 150 of you out there, there must be a few
other issues or concerns that you'd like to discuss!
As for technicalities, there have been some problems getting folks
signed on and some resulting delivery error notices. Please bear
with me as I get used to being a listowner and try to get these
things fixed. Let me know if you are having problems receiving or
sending mail.
