The previous publishers, Learned Information Europe Ltd, did prior to MCB acquiring the journal in late January 2000. Tracy Cogan Assistant Managing Editor Library & Information Science Titles -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Online & CD Rom Review / Online Information Review Date: Thu, 27 Jul 2000 17:03:27 -0400 From: "Feustel, Carol (FEUSTECS)" <FEUSTECS@ucmail.uc.edu> Dear Serialsters, If you have a subscription to Online & CD-Rom Review, it changed titles and publishers for 2000. The new title is Online Information Review. The new publisher, MCB University Press, did not include any information about the title change in the first issue. Only because our vendor, Blackwells, hounded for no service issues did this information come to light. Most publishers do a good job informing us about title changes, but those that don't cause so many problems. Non-communication = repeated unnecessary claims. Publishers need to realize that their lack of communication and s-l-o-w claim resolution is directly reflected in cancellations. What they don't seem to understand is that the journals that have receipt problems are put on the cancellation chopping block. We carefully study before ordering a journal from a publisher with chronic receipt problems, if a similar journal is available from a reliable publisher we may choose it instead. Yet another reason why Serials Librarians have gray hair.
