Spaced-OoooO-Out ::

I finally had an email back from the British Library concerning my earlier thesis request using the new EThOS service for digital thesis delivery. This was requested 17 February 2009 and was delivered today, which by my count is 129 days. So perhaps not the fastest service, but the product itself can’t be sniffed at. Well scanned, in colour, delivered to your door. Of course, if it’s already been scanned then it’s instant delivery and this will improve as the back catalog increases, however for “serious” use it needs to be returned within the 2-4 week timeframe.
