I sent part of the responses from those of you who had difficulty connecting to the new Iter web site to Bill Bowen, the originator. You'll find his reply below. Hope it helps! On a purely administrative note, I have been solicited by a new Web service which is offering to index list archives on web sites (it's a new commercial venture which is providing some academic/non-profit Internet services to the educational market while making their money from commercial sites; sort of like AltaVista, I gather). I have written back to express interest, and am hoping that we'll have more accessible archives soon.

Bowen" <[log in to unmask]> To: Abigail Ann Young <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Re: Iter Hi Abigail, The short answer to some of the queries is that users should read the status report and other documentation that is on the Iter web site. There they will find a list of journals from which we have taken citations for articles. In the near future we will circulate an invitation to the community to propose which journals we should tackle next -- this may be of interest to your list and the special interests of its members. Also, it should be emphasized that the Iter web site is a test site for a product which will be more stable in a few months. In the meantime, we are changing things. For example, the search screens have been redesigned in the last few weeks and will continue to change as we develop the system. So, there will be brief moments when the database is not available because we are working on its fundamental structure. Any substantial problems should be reported to Iter so that we can find out where the problem lies: an email link is set up on the web pages for easy use. cheers, Bill Address: Try www.library.utoronto.ca/www/iter ********************************************************************* William R.
