Dear List

Yes, we use Absearch.  We subscribe to one database.  We subscribe via
Absearch only because they are the only ones with the electronic version
to the database that we need. Absearch has promised full text but I have
not seen it.  Also, they use a per search pricing model which is difficult
to monitor.
