Subject: COMPENDEX PLUS & EI DOCUMENT DELIVERY

Roger Williams University is changing its engineering program from engineering
technology to a full engineering program (a general engineering B.S. with a
concentration in either electrical, mechanical, or civil and a B.B. in
environmental engineering).

With this development also comes increased demands on the Library.
We are about to order COMPENDEX PLUS (CD-Rom equivalent on "engineering
Index.") Does anyone have experience with and and any comments/suggestions/
complaints??

We think we'll just get the current year plus two backfile years (each year is
one CD).  Also, any warning/advice on equipment - we get to order CD equipment
just for this product - yeah!!

We also plan to utilize EI's document delivery service to obtain citations
retrieved via COMPENDEX PLUS.  Again, any comments would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Paul Drake
