[Asaf Bartov]

I would like to particularly encourage all of you to look into this
opportunity.  It is tremendously useful for research and citing, and it
would be great to see more use of these resources by Indian editors in all
languages.

I'm also particularly interested to hear about any problems you encounter
in using the resources, as well as to learn about other paywalled databases
you would find it useful to gain access to for your editing work.

Cheers,

   A.
