                  _Per View E-Journal Article Services_

    To my pleasant surprise, I recently learned that the American
Chemical Society and the American Institute of Physics began offering
full-text Web individual journal articles for sale over the Web.
As noted in a summer issue of _The Seybold Report on Internet Publishing_
"Single articles are available for sale both to subscribers and to the
general public, as well as to libraries, universities and other
institutional customers." [June 1, 1998, v.2., no.10]

    I am greatly interested in learning about _other_ such services
that offer *Per View / Pay-As-You-Use / Per Drink * access to
_e-journal_ articles, preferrably for non-subscribers. [I am not interested
in FAX (or other) non electronic delivery for this access option]

    I am most interested in those services that can provide **seemless**
integration with existing E-Journal services provided by Aggregators
or Abstracting and Indexing Services.

    As Always, Any and All Contributions, Queries, Questions, Concerns,
Critiques, Comments, etc. are most well.

    Joy!
