Re: SERIALST Digest -Campus access to Wall Street Journal Sharon A. Sample 30 Oct 2009 16:21 UTC

We also have ABI-Inform and Newspaper Source. Newspaper Source is
delayed by one day. We recently received a bill for ABI Inform for one
Citation hit= $1.00; for one full-text retrieval =$5.00. We are
rethinking ABI-Inform subscription, as it is no longer subsidized for us
and we dropped ProQuest in 2006, prior to the beginning of my employment
here. Considering all of the electronic news feeds and RSS capabilities,
newspapers in proprietary databases are becoming less and less cost
effective.

Hi,

Are there alternatives to providing campus IP access to the current
issues of Wall Street Journal other than through ProQuest databases such
as ABI/INFORM?

Subject: Re: Campus access to Wall Street Journal

I thought we had access to The Wall Street Journal in Newspaper Source
as w=
ell, but that is no longer the case.  According to Ebsco's title list
for N=
ewspaper Source, they still index & abstract it cover-to-cover, but
unfortu=
nately full-text is no longer available.

We have access to the Wall Street Journal in Factiva.

I posted the question below to the listserv on October 8th

Has anyone out there switched their traditional microfilm to digital
microf=
ilm?  We are considering doing this for 3 newspaper titles (New York
Times,=
 Wall Street Journal, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel) using ProQuest's
Digital =
Microfilm.

What do your users think?

What problems have you encountered?

Are there other similar products?

I received several requests to post a summary back to the list.  So,
hear g=
oes...

SUMMARY:
Most libraries are the process of deciding whether or not to make the
switc=
h.  Below is a summary of pros/cons based on feedback from this list and
fe=
edback from my library.  This summary is limited to Proquest's Digital
Micr=
ofilm product.

Pros:
**No MF equipment required
**Accessible from any computer with Internet access
**Multiple, simultaneous users
**Print, crop, email, save images
**Perpetual Access to years paid for

Cons:
**Extra $$$ (5% more than traditional film)
**Interface clunky & slow
**Not keyword searchable, must know title, issue, date, page
**A transitional format?
**No usage statistics
**Doesn't work well with SFX.  Can link to main page, but not individual
ne=
wspaper titles or articles
**If canceled, receive content on DVDs.

There were some concerns about the Tasini decision.  The Proquest rep I
am =
working with clarified that it is not an issue with their product.
"Digita=
l Microfilm is created from the film, therefore the entire paper is
represe=
nted.  You will have the ability to crop, resize the articles.  So, yes
you=
 can 'technically' manipulate the paper.  Our rights and permissions
dept h=
as worked through legal issues with each individual newspapers.  With
that =
in mind, I would treat the Digital Microfilm in a similar fashion as the
pa=
per or film copies of the paper as they fall under 'fair use'."

Subject: Re: Campus access to Wall Street Journal

I just checked and I don't really have access either.  I thought we did,

but apparently Serials Solutions hasn't gotten wind of this change yet.

I went to Serials Solutions to try to "de-select" this title, but was
not able to do so.  I sent Serials Solutions a request about it, so they

should hopefully get to that soon.  Thank you for letting us all know
about this problem.

Sincerely,

Barbara M. Pope, MALS

as well, but that is no longer the case.  According to Ebsco's title
list for Newspaper Source, they still index & abstract it
cover-to-cover, but unfortunately full-text is no longer available.
