Electronic Shopping?
*******************

We are considering installing an "electronic shopping service"
for our professional reference books.  This would allow  you to
log on to our host, scan the tables of contents of current and
forthcoming titles, and place an order directly using a credit
card.  Prices would be comparable to those found in bookstores.

Would you use such a system?    [  ] yes    [  ] no

   If so, about how often would you log on to the PH system,
   assuming new titles were added monthly?

   Would you also browse technical bookstores for titles
   in your specialty? 

Your comments will help us configure a system that meets you needs.
