Colleagues
Like most universities, our use of traditional online services like Dialog
and STN has declined from the level of 20 years ago and is now only very
occasional, so we wonder if its worth continuing to pay monthly fees simply
to stay registered.
I know some institutions have just given up all subscriptions, but have
others found an economic way of using services? I haven't quite sorted out
what the Web based versions offer - are these the answer?
Thanks.
