Hello Tom
I only became aware of this after we received an email from The Economist
Group last week, I also assumed I missed something from Ebsco but maybe I
didn't if you haven't seen any notification either.
To replace the content we are currently investigating the cost of a
subscription to The Economist Online.
Hope that helps
Hannah
