This system, run by the Colorado Alliance of Research Libraries (CARL), offers a useful service: a large searchable database of periodicals (claimed to be the world's largest, with more than 4,000 citations added each day). They have about 500 serials with "economics" in the title. Coverage dates back to 1988; if a serial was added since then, coverage begins at the date in which it was added. Perhaps more importantly, the articles can be ordered and delivered via fax. Credit card payment is accepted (payments include copyright fees). Thus, this could be very useful for those with poor libraries. It appears that most articles cost from $10 to $15. Searches are free, however.
After logging onto the system move to "1. UnCover (Article Access and Delivery)."
