Your institution has a library subscription Ask your librarian for the library's subscription number, then register yourself at the NAR Online web site. Remember to use your own name when you register (not that of the library) and to create your own personal password. Then we can send you advance table of contents information by e-mail and also let you know immediately of any changes or enhancements to the online access system. WHAT IF NEITHER I NOR MY LIBRARY HAVE A CURRENT SUBSCRIPTION? In 1996, you can still visit NAR Online and browse or search the titles and abstracts as a visitor. But you won't be able to access the full text of articles. I'M THINKING OF SUBSCRIBING - CAN I SEE A SAMPLE ONLINE ISSUE FIRST? Yes. You'll find when you come to our site as a visitor that you can access the full text of Volume 23, Issue 24 (the last issue of 1995) ------------------------------------- We hope you find this information helpful. All questions, comments and suggestions, etc. on NAR Online's quality, speed, ease of use, facilities, and options will continue to be greatly welcomed.
