Roddy
Thanks for the announcement. The site is very comprehenmsive, and the new
structures make it very easy to use.
I wonder if I might draw your attention to Anbar's Civil Engineering
databases at
http://www.anbar.co.uk/civeng/home.htm
Put simply, we seek out the best journals globally to cover through our
accreditation processes, then ensure good search routines, and access to
full-text through our alliance with The British Library.
We are currently investing significantly in R and D, and look set to make
some good steps forward for 1998. To get a feel for the direction this is
taking us, please check out our Management pages at
http://www.anbar.co.uk/management/home.htm
Many thanks
