I just signed on to this list so I don't know if there has been any
discussion about Faxon's financial situation.  I imagine there has.  My
question concerns the possibility of our library switching from Faxon to
EBSCO.  I would appreciate resposes from customers of EBSCO.  Have you been
satisfied, or not?  Is claiming a simplified or a complicated procedure?
Are claims resolved in a timely fashion?  Do you feel the services they
offer correspond adequately to their fees?  Any information positive or
negative would be helpful.  Thank you in advance.

Note from the editor:  Terry and other SERIALST readers may be
interested in perusing the MEDLIB-L (Medical librarians) discussion logs
on the listserv@ubvm.bitnet (or ubvm.cc.buffalo.edu) since June 1994
for informal discussion re. evaluating subscription vendors, including
EBSCO, Faxon, and others.  MEDLIB-L's archives are publicly accessible
(whether one subscribes to MEDLIB-L or not) from listserv@ubvm.cc.buffalo.edu.
Also, please reply to Terry Gwiazdowski and not to SERIALST with individual
responses.  Thanks.   --Birdie
