“Philosophy begins in wonder. And, at the end, when philosophic thought has done its best, the wonder remains.” Alfred North Whitehead (British mathematician and philosopher, 1861-1947)

Have you ever wondered where to access your favorite journals online? And, more to the point, have you ever wondered which of the online databases offers the full text of journals of most importance to you?

Librarians and other information professionals ponder this question all the time. FSO – Fulltext Sources Online – provides a jump start in answering these questions.
