Hello!  You mentioned that setting up your records took some time.  Can you tell us what is involved and how you went about it?  Thanks so much for sharing your experience!  Eeva

We, too, use one record. We purchased Innovative's E-journal holdings
update and I like it a lot. Serial Solutions will send you the file you
need in the proper format. Setting up your records takes some work, but
once they are set up, the update, which come every 2 months,  takes a
relatively short time. After I run the update, I then run a list of all
the records that weren't updated and can check for problems and find
those journals that have been dropped from the aggregators. Check out our 
catalog(http://library.law.suffolk.edu/search/) for something like
"Callaloo" or "Journal of Finance"  to see what it looks like. If you
decide to implement I can guide you through some of the intricacies that
are, shall we say "insufficiently explained" in the manual.
