Now, I have a couple of specific questions, and please forgive if I
sound naive.
- Does the access will be at the anonymous(or member name)-FTP level, or like
  a fee-paying service as a commercial site?  If the fee is the policy
  in study to make available this service, is it going to be more
  expensive than the regular fee to get the tapes/disks?

- Are the regular fees to obtain stuff from the Library going to be
  increased in a substantial way to mantain this new service?

Any opinion, answer, or suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

-Azael
