Access is provided through a single World Wide Web interface that supports cross-journal searching and extensive browsing. The system can accommodate thousands of journals, and libraries can choose the journals they want to include in their electronic collection. Journals will be loaded in their entirety on or before their publication date. OCLC will also provide libraries with ongoing access to an archive of the journals they have subscribed to. Libraries purchase an access account from OCLC which enables users to display article citations for all the journals available through the service and display abstracts or complete articles for journals their library subscribes to.
Users can browse lists of journals, selected issues or a selected topic area.
Others may be added during the trial period. The Alliance office has made arrangements on behalf of all Alliance members to participate in the Preview Program. Access will be IP limited. Please join us for the sneak preview. The Alliance and other participating Colorado libraries pay a set fee to OCLC for access to 75 concurrent users.
