I would like to know the purpose of your query, because we are subscriber of a certain section of this database with full text access and if your query as a subscriber point views then I will let you know.

some of our officers in management want to subscribe. Our Institute head has asked about its feed back. please let me know at the earliest.

Regards,

Shiromani

Dear Ms.Bajaj, as we are subscribing economics and finance, there is time embargo in full text access approx 6 months to 1 year and some time more. They also provide the list of the journals usually maximised in comparison to their actual existence by including the journals from other stream with less relevance. Also you should negotiate the charges up to the extent because the charges vary from institution to institution. For further details you may call me at official no. 011-43112424.

 thanks Ms. Chhaya. I will call after sometime.

Can you tell me how much you pay for  how much period .  Is it easy to search any thing in this data base because I think it is such a huge data base, how can I filter our required data. Please guide.  

If you have any contact in PGI chandigarh you may ask for, they are using; also you may ask EBSCO for free trials. We usually not buy the whole database because all the contents are not worth for any single library. There are groups based on subjects, according to your need you may select and if you are using scienceDirect or any other journal database similarly you can filter the required data easily.

 

Thanks Ms. Chhaya.

EBSCO ejournals may be useful for academy institution and research organization only, as it contains articles predominantly from archives and articles are available separately and can be retrieved by search (of course, majority  of the ejournals database use the same way).  But, it’s very difficult,  if someone want to know about update on any particular topics unless you know the subject and search using the particular terms

Thanks Mr. Ponerulappan.P. for information provided.
