    Abstract
    Purpose - This article aims to focus on usage data in respect to full-text downloads of journal articles, which is considered an important usage (satisfaction) metric by librarians and publishers. The purpose is to evaluate the evidence regarding full-text viewing by pooling together data on the full-text viewing of tens of thousands of users studied as part of a number of investigations of e-journal databases conducted during the Virtual Scholar research programme. Design/methodology/approach - The paper reviews the web logs of a number of electronic journal libraries including OhioLINK and ScienceDirect using Deep Log Analysis, which is a more sophisticated form of transactional log analysis. The frequency, characteristics and diversity of full-text viewing are examined. The article also features an investigation into the time spent online viewing full-text articles in order to get a clearer understanding of the significance of full-text viewing, especially in regard to reading. Findings - The main findings are that there is a great deal of variety amongst scholars in their full-text viewing habits and that a large proportion of views are very cursory in nature, although there is survey evidence to suggest that reading goes on offline. Originality/value - This is the first time that full-text viewing evidence is studied on such a large scale.

    Abstract
    Abstracts enable users to judge the relevance of articles, provide a summary and may be a substitute for the original document. Defines abstracts and considers who they are written be according to the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and other sources. Distinguishes between indicative and informative abstracts. Informative abstracts are preferred by ANSI and ERIC. Discusses the content and procedures for abstracting, writing style, tests of quality and readability and informativeness. Presents statistics analyzing abstracts from 3 general interest databases and on abstract length and type

    Abstract
    Describes the links which major online indexing and bibliographic services are providing from article citations to the corresponding electronic full text. Services covered include OCLC's FirstSearch and its Electronic Collections Online, Ovid, PubMed and UMI/ProQuest Direct. Discusses the value of links to electronic full text vis a vis direct searching of the full text, arguing for the superiority of the former and stressing that indexing services and bibliographic databases have a strong future for this reason

    Abstract
    Examines why online systems and CD-ROMs are producing a greater need for bibliographic instruction. Most online systems and CD-ROMs operate with the same software developed for the first online systems 20 years ago. Innovative search techniques such as natural language have spread from inhouse databases to the commercial online and CD-ROM environment. Personal Librarian and Westlaw Is Natural represent the online second generation. Discusses Personal Librarian; CD-ROM products; online expansion and DIALOG and Personal Library Software

    Abstract
    WESTLAW is one of the first major commercial online systems to embrace both natural language input and partial match searching. Provides a backgroud to WESTLAW. Explains how the WESTLAW Is Natural (WIN) search engine works. Some searchers find that when searching with commands and Boolean logic, results differ drastically from those produces by searching with WIN. Discusses exact match Boolean logic search engines

    Abstract
    Reports on a survey of electronic reference sources and their impact on the work of reference librarians. Reference librarians in university libraries in the Association of Research Libraries (ARL) in the USA were asked to comment on how the library's use of such sources has changed over the past 2 to 3 years and how the work of reference staff has changed. The themes highlighted by the survey include changes in user instructions; the impact of technology; the rising expectations of users; and 'technostress'

    Abstract
    Outlines 3 generations of online searching: to 1981, when personal computers became ubiquitous, when searching was done from dumb terminals by intermediaries; from 1982 to 1991, when through the use of the PC, faster transmission speeds and the advent of ASCII full text, specialized end users joined intermediaries in the exploitation of online; and a generation characterized by multimedia PCs, higher transmission speeds, ASCII and 'image' full text databases, the invlovement of the general end user. Reviews the evolution of these 3 generations in 4 specific areas: content/databases; people and organizations involved; the places people search; motives for using online; and search engines and interfaces used
