Hello Everyone,

I'm new to the list (just joined today).  I am currently in charge of
our Serials for the library and am trying to get the Dynix Serials
Module up and running.  We are supposed to move to Horizon, but with the
current budget situation, things are looking gloomy.  I have two
questions for you folks.

1. Has anyone migrated from the Dynix Serials Module to that of
Horizon's, and was is successful?
2. How in the world do I figure out the chronologies of all of our serials?
- I know that one way would be to look at the physical collection, but
we have our collection spread out over 23 branches, and might pose a
problem.
Is there any way to get this information electronically?  I've tried
EBSCO (our vendor), OCLC, Serials Union list. No dice.  I can only find
frequencies and retentions.

If any of you can help, it would be wonderful.

Sincerely,

Martin House
