Nevin:
Internet users can access the latest five years of the ERIC database
through SUINFO, a campus info system at Syracuse Univ.

Step 1.    Telnet acsnet.syr.edu     or   Tenet 128.230.1.21
     2.   At the > prompt, type  SUINFO
     3.  At the "Enter terminal type" prompt,  type vt 100
     4.  Bypass the  USERID prompt  with the tab key
     5.  Bypass the PASSWORD prompt  with the tab key
     6.  At the COMMAND prompt, type SUINFO
     7.  After a pause, you will see a Welcome to SUINFO screen.  Read the
         message and type  Y   to contine
         (NOTE:  If you do not get the welcome screen, try typing SUINFO  again
          and hit return)
     8.  After a pause, you will see a Welcome to PRISM screen, followed by
         the main menu.  Choose "General Interest" from the main menu by
         typing  1
     9.  You will see a File Selection Menu.  Choose ERIC by typing the
         correct number.
     10.  Follow screen instruction to search the database.
     11.  To end the SUINFO session, type LOGOFF.

Hope it works!
