Abstract

Presents results of a two‐year trial, undertaken by the ADONIS Consortium, in which CD‐ROM containing facsimile images of pages of articles, abstracts, editorials, letters and other items from 219 biomedical journals were delivered to document supply centres. Shows sufficient potential for the members of the ADONIS Consortium to introduce a commercial service.
