Hello,
We are are a large public reference library with about 3500 active
periodical subscriptions, and perhaps 10000+ titles including inactive
holdings. We haven't produced a print copy of our periodicals holdings
since 1997. For the most part we use the OPAC. We also have a stand-alone
database of active titles only in ProCite5. We use this database to print
subject lists for patrons when we need to. We do this keep a copy of the
1997 periodicals list at the reference desk, as we still find it useful
for some of our older material (we have materials going back to the 18th
and 19th centuries) It would be nice to have the the print copy updated
but the cost is prohibitive.

Regards,
Raimo Hepolehto

I was surprised to see that so many folks are keeping paper lists.  With
the number of changes to titles, frequency, etc., I wonder what is the
rationale?  We rely on our online catalog for both lists of titles and
details about each one.  Then when cataloging is updated, patrons have
the latest information.

Peter,
We still have a print version of our journal holdings list for our patrons
and staff to use in the library. We also send it out to other libraries. We
try to update it once a year. If we have many changes like our current
weeding project, more often.
We use a MS Word file and publish it on the hospital Intranet.
Even though we have our holdings in the PubMed LinkOut, there is no way to
list all non-Medline titles in Serhold and to indicate which titles are in
off-site storage or on microfiche. That is why we still need a paper list.

We continue to maintain the printed list which is updated at
least once a year.  There are several copies in the library,
and it is used quite a bit.

Also, it was VERY handy during a "partial" blackout in the
library recently.  The computers were down, and half the
lights were out, but there was enough power to keep the
building open and the students looking for journals!

We are working to rid ourselves of our annually produced print
periodicals list, but a lot depends on whether or not
SerialsSolutions or EBSCO A-Z can actually come up with a list which
shows ALL titles, living and dead, with specific holdings for each
title.  When that happens, we will wean ourselves from the print.
The list was available online until we started getting
SerialsSolutions, which we now use instead.

We do a print and an online version. The information is stored in an
Access database which is used to generate the print version each fall
and to dynamically update the web version. Take a look if you want:

For our e-journals and things in aggregators, we use SFX to generate a
separate list. It'd be nice if the 2 lists could be integrated but we're
not there yet.
