6. BL vs. JL TIAC article order from BL declined since 2000 Because of current subscription to full-text e-journals by libraries Increased use from JL

7. Potential new members National libraries Special libraries Public libraries School libraries Thai SCI database

8. FYI More valuable use can be added to journals housed in Thai libraries New subscribers to e-journals may not need the whole databases Back issues are available from JL JL and OpenSource for possible links with D Space models of institutional repositories

9. Cost vs Benefit Prior investment by NSTDA and TRF Current investment (budget) from NSTDA Any business profit Any social benefit ? Any morale ? Thai research initiative

10. Librarian Networking Strong but powerful ? Broad enough to cover the whole country JL may be the first network of all types of libraries A few journals with incomplete holdings can share

11. Shall we move on ?
