     I've just joined this listserv a few weeks ago, so I don't know if
this topic has already been discussed.  Please indulge me.
     Our public library currently offers several Infotrac databases ( the
 CD- roms) to help our patrons access serial articles.   We're planning
to offer the  online version soon.  Has anyone had experiences with
Infotrac's Searchbank,    UMI's Proquest, and EBSCO's EBSCOhost?  Are
there any unforseen  obstacles to avoid.  So much of what's being offered
seems "too good to be true."

Thanks in advance,
