Posted with permission and on behalf of Hazel Woodward (originally sent Aug. 18 to the ERIL email list):
Can any member of the list tell me whether there is a directory (or any other information source) that gives information about what digital backfiles of journals are now available - including information about whether any of these are available at no cost.
Also (and I suspect this is less likely to exist) has anyone pulled together information on how many linear metres each printed journal takes up on the shelf?
