MARC records for Serials (fwd)

*******************************
And now for something completely different...
Our library will be getting a Serials module to allow for automated
serials checkin. Problem is, it (GEAC Libs 100+) wants full
MARC records for our 600+ titles (we're currently making do with
partial records). Our serials vendor, Turner, says it cannot
provide these records. We've heard Ebsco supplies them, but can
we buy them without being a regular customer, or would we have
to change all our subscriptions over to them? Has anyone else
encounterd this problem (i.e., need Serials MARC records in a
pinch) and found a solution?
P.S. This question might be more appropriate for the Serials listserv,
but I don't belong to it; if someone's willing to forward this
query to it, feel free (just don't all do it at once! :-).
