Abstract

A simple, manual current awareness service at the University of Southern California School of Dentistry, designed to provide the user with photocopied tables of contents from selected journals, is described. Other available current awareness and selective dissemination of information services are discussed, and a general comparison and cost analysis is made between the USC program and SDILINE. The service was evaluated by means of a questionnaire distributed to the 30 faculty participants. Results indicate that the service is of value in the teaching and research programs of the school, and has a high degree of user acceptance. Cost of the service is minimal considering the benefits to the faculty.
