Please watch this listserv for the date when these products will be
available to you on-line.  We are anticipating this will occur by the middle
of July.  These databases are in addition to the databases that were
licensed for 2001-2002 and are in addition to the new EBSCO databases
announced several weeks ago.  Access to all databases licensed for
state-wide use is free to local libraries, schools, and any Maine resident
who has Internet connectivity.  This licensing is funded by cooperation
among the Maine State Library, the University of Maine System, the Maine
Technical College System, and from the Maine School and Library Network
escrow account, and the Maine State Legislature.
