Here's a full description of the scope of Just-in-Time(sm)
<QUOTE>
Just-In-Time (sm): Electronic Article Delivery Services is a clearinghouse of
projects, research, products and services which are investigating or provide
desktop access on an 'As Needed' basis to individual journal, magazine,
newspaper, or other serial publication article, chapter, or paper for which an
individual or institution does not have a formal subscription. This
clearinghouse
also includes bibliographic databases that can be searched for a fixed
transactional fee. Entries have been organized in categories that characterize
the scope of service and within each arranged alphabetically by the name of the
service, project, or publisher.

Of particular interest are any research studies of use of such services.
