The issue has come up in our library in terms of how much customer service we
we provide to Internet services.  There is a certain segment that if are going
to provide patrons with access to their e-mail accounts then we should provide
them with access to the AOL, CompuServe, Prodegy and whatever proprietary stuff
they might want access to.  We have not pursued this due to lack of consensus
to this viewpoint and the amount of time I would have to spend keeping the
software current.
