ProQuest has ties with Factiva.com - an institutional database management system. There may be a link to Factiva Search at a library providing access to ProQuest. Richard Eastman recommends that Factiva Search is the preferred search engine when using ProQuest. He says: "Factiva Search 2.0 delivers superior results displayed with interactive charts that are so easy-to-use - everyone can find what they're looking for. ..." I found this information about Factiva: http://www.proquest.co.uk/products/factiva.html http://www.infotoday.com/newsbreaks/nb060116-2.shtml Those sites provide a little bit of information about using that search engine. The UK website may be worth printing out for reference when using Factiva at a library. Karen
