Does your library subscribe to or use the BUSINESS PERIODICALS INDEX
published by the H.W.Wilson Company (in either print, Wilsondisc,
WilsonWeb, FirstSearch, tapeload for a mainframe, or formatted by other
value added providers)?  Or do you subscribe to WILSON BUSINESS ABSTRACTS
in any of those formats?

     If you answered yes to either question, then you should have received
a survey in the mail from the H.W.Wilson Company, signed by ALA's
"Committee On Wilson Indexes."

     This four-page survey dated NOVEMBER 1997 is due back in the hands of
the H.W.Wilson Company by DECEMBER 19th.

     As one of the members of that Committee, I want you to know that this
survey is conducted approximately ONCE every five years, and your input on
this survey is very valuable towards shaping the role of what goes into
future issues of BUSINESS PERIODICALS INDEX and WILSON BUSINESS ABSTRACTS!

     If you subscribe to this periodical index in any form, and have not
yet received your survey, please contact:

        Barbara Chen / Indexing Services at H.W.Wilson

become a business librarian, and is now a member of ALA's RUSA Committee
