Feedback requested on WWW journal project Philip Mestecky 04 Jun 1996 18:08 UTC

I am currently working on a project to put one of our journals online via
WWW for 1997. We are planning to make the journal available through a
site license with access controlled by password. Our preference is to
issue the library with a master password which would then be passed
on to the relevant scientists who would use it to register themselves as
users.

Later this year we plan to offer a three month free trial which, in order
to test the subsequent subscription arrangement (above), we would
restrict to librarians who would be issued with a temporary password
for distribution to users.

I would be very interested to hear the views of any librarians about
whether or not this sort of involvement at the free trial stage or upon
subscription would be welcome.
