Abstract
Elsevier and OCLC have agreed to make all 1100‐plus Elsevier Science journals available electronically. A planned service called Elsevier Electronic Subscriptions will offer libraries complete electronic editions either in addition to or instead of paper ones. There will also be the option to use OCLC's SiteSearch system, which allows building, maintaining and searching databases locally, and OCLC's Guidon graphical user interface. This year will comprise a pilot scheme at five sites in North America, and the service should then launch commercially if the trials go well. On offer will be Group 4 facsimile images of pages plus searchable text and tables of contents. The scheme builds on Elsevier's TULIP project, extending the scope to cover all journals.
