[Web4lib] RE: library automation vendors

Actually, Searcher is indexed in several databases that most libraries should have access to:

from 01/01/1998 to present in ProQuest Research Library 
from 05/01/1993 to present in Expanded Academic ASAP 
from 07/01/1996 to present in Academic Search Premier and MasterFILE Premier 


As librarians, shouldn't we be using our licensed databases rather than attempting to find everything on the web?
