It is supposed to come by surface mail, but does anyone know how long it takes for an issue to arrive? We have no other daily foreign subscriptions with which to compare it. Our Ebsco representative advised us over 2 weeks ago that our issues are on the way according to the publisher (after a delay in our order due to currency conversion problems with the Euro!), but not a single issue has yet arrived. I'm wondering how long I should wait before suspecting there might be another problem with our order. Thank you for any info on this you all may have.

It did take almost two months before we received the first issue. Hope this helps. ----------(4) Date: Fri, 22 Feb 2002 12:13:29 -0500 From: Tom Evans Library/Periodicals <evans@canisius.edu> Subject: Re: Le Monde (Elizabeth Jardine) We receive our weekly issues anywhere from 6 to 9 days apart.

Also, they do not always arrive in chronological order. All mail and shipping takes a bit longer to get to Alaska ( automated disclaimer there). I imagine that just not being in Alaska should improve your service. fyi.
