RE: Blackwell journals now on Wiley InterScience

["Chen, Xiaotian" <chen@bumail.bradley.edu>]

On SFX listserv, librarians all over the world are reporting 
linking problems.

It seems to me that Wiley does not care about and is not afraid 
of its customers.  Otherwise, how dare they take down a working 
site (Blackwell-Synergy) before they make the new site working 
properly? Would a company of any other business do this to their 
customers?

Jonathan Rochkind from Johns Hopkins jokingly posted on SFX 
Listserv that we should ask Wiley for pro-rate refund.  Maybe we 
should seriously consider this joke, so that libraries will not 
be treated like this in the future?
