Hello All; 
 
Ross recently posted the TOC for JEI, as supplied by the editor.  For 
those of you with access to a Telnet client (either within your web 
browser, departmental gopher, Internet service provider), you can obtain 
the TOCs from any of 17,000 different titles (most of the social sciences 
periodicals, including JEI) through the CARL Uncover Alert Service.  As 
TOC information is added to their database, subscribers are "alerted" and 
sent the TOCs (of their favorite journals) via email.  CARL offers many 
other services, most importantly is access to their periodicals database 
(well worth a visit).  
 
For more information point your web browser to: 
 
   http://www.carl.org/carlinfo.html 
 
or telnet to: 
 
   database.carl.org 
 
or send email to:

As a frequent user of the service, I recomend it highly.  A quick note  
concerning the Contents alert service, though.  It is designed to allow  
users to "reply" with article id information and their password so as to  
acquire a copy of the article (this is not to imply that it is unreadable  
or useless -- far from it).  Anne's TOC (which Ross graciously posted), is  
much more readable, particularly if you have relatively unfettered access  
to hardcopy of the journal. 
 
Happy Thanksgiving!
