Subject: Re: Circulating periodical issues to faculty

Good morning Kathi,

We got around sending the actual issue to professors by sending them
the contents page of up to 5 journals.  They can circle any article
they want to read, send contents page back to periodicals, we copy
the article and send it to the professors.  They seem to appreciate
this as more than the issue, since they don't have any time limits on
how long they keep the journal.   Our solution!!
