FROM THE INSTITUTIONAL REPORTS EDITOR
With this issue the SIGNUM Newsletter begins providing an online
version of its Institutional Reports column. Point your Web browser
to http://www.netlib.org/signum-reports/ to see the new online offerings.
Going online should offer advantages both to readers and to submitters
of report listings. Exactly what direction the online service takes,
however, will depend on feedback we get from you. The easiest way to
send your ideas is to visit the Web page and click a button. If you
don't have Web access, see my address on the inside front cover for
other ways to reach me.
