13. Not completely free. The search is free but

"It's FREE to register, search the database, view titles and headlines-you only pay for the documents you retrieve."

But still, a very useful link. Thanks.

18. Happy to be of service, and...

I got this off of a librarian's list, where a reference librarian who got it from a Lexis/Nexis listserve couldn't believe his eyes when he saw it.

Needless to say, the free stuff is good, but ony a tiny part of what they have. Methinks this is a very good marketing ploy.
