Right...no physical library or other pointing is needed as long as
you're satisfied with the information that is free and available on
the internet (even if it is being paid for by a library). At Boise
State, and hundreds of others, you can get information from the last
decade or so of thousands of journals, plus all the freebies on the
net. But it won't get you the latest Steven King novel, or the latest
publication from ALA, or.....even from Elsevier....or Kluwer...or...
