WILSONDISC RGA

[Karen Radtke <kradtke@FREENET.UWM.EDU>]

Dear Barbara,
        Sorry to post this to the whole group, but I tried to send e-mail
to you, but it was returned to me. Anyway, here it is:

Dear Barbara,
        I read your response to a technology survey on LM_NET and noticed
that you subscribe to WILSONDISC RGA.  I also have RGA on cd-rom, but have
noticed that very few other H.S. Libraries seem to.  I am trying out a
demo
of MAS full text elite right now and although the full text is great, I
think that it's use of subject headings is no where near as good as
WILSONDISC's.  I know people tell me to use key word searching, but we
get so many false hits with some searches that it really seems counter-
productive.  If you have time, I would appreciate it if you could drop me
a line explaining why you have stayed with WILSONDISC or are you looking
at a full-text database for magazines also. Thanks.
