Just thought I'd point out that it may be fine to send scanned articles by email as long as the copyright notice is part of the pdf.
If you're using email to send copies from electronic journals, then you'll need to be sure that your license agreement allows it.

We are very small by many of your standards. Last year we sent out a total of 1,400 ILL's (about half of them articles) and received a total of 150. We can produce a .PDF and e-mail it as an attachment as fast or faster than we can send an ariel. My thought is that we can do without ariel and save a few dollars. Does anyone see any major flaw in this thinking?

I was wondering if libraries who use ariel are also sending and receving e-mail .pdf files and if this is becoming more common. Thanks, Rick Jones Circulation Supervisor E. M.
