BCR H.W. Wilson Trial Launched
(November 1999 Action for Libraries newsletter)

BCR's H.W. Wilson 60-day trial and group subscription has gotten off to a grand beginning. At press time, 67 libraries had signed up for the trial. Libraries may register for the trial through November 15.

BCR's H.W. Wilson group subscription will run from December 1, 1999, through December 31, 2000; for the first year, libraries subscribing from the beginning will get 13 months' access for BCR's regular annual price. In subsequent years, the group subscription will run for 12 months, January 1-December 31. Enrollment is open year round. The group subscription provides unlimited access to the databases for the same price a library normally pays for one-to-five simultaneous-user access.

All databases in the free trial include full text. The databases are:

    Applied Science & Technology Full Text
    Current Biography: 1940-Present
    Education Full Text
    Famous First Facts
    Readers' Guide Full-text Mega Edition
    Short Story Index
