> What has annoyed me this time around is that I have had to sort the list
of journals Elsevier sent me as being held in Nottingham; a goodly number of
these were not our subs. because the list included local hospitals' titles.
> Yet I did the same exercise for Elsevier 2-3 years ago, so why didn't they
keep the definitive list I sent them then?

recompense could be made - but I think that fell on deaf ears.
