Subject: Just-in-Time(sm): Electronic Article Delivery Services

              _Just-in-Time(sm): Electronic Article Delivery Services_

    I am pleased to announce the establishment of a new clearinghouse
devoted to Electronic Article Delivery Services called _Just-in-Time(sm)_
The address for Just-in-Time(sm) is:

        http://www.public.iastate.edu/~CYBERSTACKS/Just.htm

_Just-In-Time (sm): Electronic Article Delivery Services_ is a
clearinghouse of projects, research, products and services which are
investigating or provide desktop access, on a 'As Needed' basis, to
individual journal, magazine, newspaper, or other serial publication
article, chapter, or paper for which an individual or institution does not
have a formal subscription. Entries have been organized in categories that
characterize the scope of service and within each arranged alphabetically
by the name of the service, project, or publisher.

    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 that are not presently listed.
[I am not interested in FAX (or other) non electronic delivery for this
access option] [If my headcold gets better, I plan to add a description of
the services provided by The Electric Library, KnowledgeLink InfoMarket,
ChemWeb and MedWeb(?), by the end of this week.]

   I also plan to add key reference that further describe a service as
well as a General Bibliography that will include items that discuss the
issue of Pay-Per-View access in general and would greatly appreciate
appropriate citations that are **not** cited on a service site or already
provided to me in response to my earlier post [Thank you all once again
for your interest and time in nominating candidates and for citations to
your work!]

    As in my previous posting, I am most interested in those services that
can provide **seamless** 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!
