More e-database questions

It's me again, the grad student from Indiana University.  Thank you for
the responses I got to the questions I posed last week on this listserve.
I thought I would send the questions again, in the hopes that those who
didn't have time last week, might have time this week to respond.

Thanks,

Heather Collins

My questions for you are:

*What factors do you take into consideration when evaluating and
purchasing an e-database?

*Are there special deals that vendors/publishers give to win you as a
customer? 

*What trends or changes do you see happening over the last few years and
into the future?

*And any other opinions you have on the policies of these publishers.

*Could you point me to any articles and/or websites that would help in my
quest for information?

Any information that you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

Heather Collins
