RE: Science Direct Web Editions

The Web editions license has been changed to permit walk-in users.  
Unfortunately, there has been a problem in updating the electronic version
on the Web site, for which we apologize, but be assured that walk-ins are
permitted.  And there are no plans to charge for the Web editions.  
Indeed, you will hear announcements of enhance- ments in the Web editions
program shortly.

Subject: Science Direct Web Editions


If there has already been a lot of discussion on this area, my apologies
as I have not been reading the lists postings.  I have Elsevier titles
with free web access (at least up to this point!) but Science Direct Web
editions seems a new spin on this.  After reading the license agreement, I
am rather disturbed by the definition of users which precludes any use of
the journal by members of the general public who may come in to use the
library's collection.  Have others had this concern and were you able to
change this stipulation?  Thanks--Carol Resco
