Network journal services

[BARBARA VICKERY]

I'm in the process of writing a report on existing major network 
suppliers of journals , eg OCLC Firstsearch, Silver Platter etc . 
This is to provide some background detail for our Subject staff and 
library management so that strategic decisions may be considered 
regarding how we supply access to journals. We currently use 
networked CD Roms and of course, paper.
I am wondering if anyone has done any similar reports or indeed 
comparisons between the major services available. Or if anyone feels 
they could reccommend one such service above another and why ?

I will be happy to collate all results and post these to the list. 
Please respond direct unless you feel this discussion would be of 
major interest to list members.

Many thanks in advance
