Physics Today Backfile: Trial Access Extended Through May 15

Dear Colleagues:

This year marks the first time that institutional subscribers 
have the option of receiving access to the Physics Today online 
backfile.  In mid January, AIP began giving free trial access to 
this backfile to institutions that subscribe to Physics Today or 
one of AIP's journals, and have a valid online user license. We 
are now pleased to announce that this free trial will continue 
through May 15.

No action is required to activate your trial; users at 
subscribing institutions have access to the PT backfile via the 
same IP addresses currently on file with AIP. They may begin 
browsing or searching at www.physicstoday.org. Please click on 
*Institutional Subscribers* to view the content available to your 
library.

Physics Today subscribers can add the backfile to their 2007 
subscription for an additional $200. This fee includes access to 
issues going back to 2000, including all but the most recent 12 
issues of the magazine; current content remains a benefit to AIP 
Member Society subscribers. Subscribers who do not receive 
Physics Today in print may subscribe to the online PT backfile by 
itself for $300. The PT backfile is also included in the AIP 
Archival and AIP Archival Plus combination subscriptions. Pricing 
for these combination subscriptions may be found on page 4 of our 
2007 Institutional Subscription Rate list at 
http://www.aip.org/journal_catalog/AIP2007NonmemberRateFixed.pdf

We hope your users find this new online content to be an ideal 
complement to your current AIP holdings, and that you will 
consider subscribing to the Physics Today backfile. AIP plans to 
digitize all issues back to the magazine's launch in 1948, 
eventually creating a complete Physics Today digital archive.

To add the PT backfile to your Physics Today subscription, or as 
a stand-alone product, please contact your agent or AIP at:
