My library at rollins subscribes to Proquest which it touted as having
fulltext articles - don't know how much it costs - but i find that it
includes very little in the way of stuff for psychology (as compared with
actually having the journals.

THe thing that would be helpful I guess would be to find out what journals
are included in each of the various databases.
