Our subscription is through our Gov. Doc. office and is checked in
and shelved with our periodicals.  For the time being, we will leave
it as an open entry and check in whatever comes as it is published.
Our staff person in Gov. Documents office thought we would probably
get the issues published through their office.  Only time will tell.
We will be glad to hear what others are doing.

I think the issue of Children Today that you just received is actually
volume 24, number 2, 1996!!  We also thought that the subscription had
ceased and noticed that issues would now be available, but not on a
subscription basis.  I think we will close the title, but put a note in
the serial record so that we are not surprised if we mysteriously
receive an issue.
