Abstract

TACOS is an acronym for TAble of COntents Service. It provides recipients with photocopies of the contents pages of journals selected from the hospital's list of serials. The service enables users to augment their journals by scanning additional tables of contents. TACOS coexists with and complements computer, SDI and other current awareness services. Growth over a five-year period is evident by an increased number of both TACOS requesters and TACOS journals requested. User satisfaction, as measured by a survey and willingness to pay, is high. TACOS is a simple, viable concept well worth implementing even in times of tight budgetary constraints.

摘要

TACOS是“目录服务表”（Table of Contents Service）的首字母缩写。它为接收者提供从医院连续出版物列表中选出的期刊目录页的复印件。这项服务使用户能够通过扫描额外的目录来扩充他们的期刊。TACOS与计算机、定题情报服务（SDI）及其他当前的情报服务并存且相互补充。通过TACOS请求者的数量增加以及所请求的TACOS期刊数量增加，五年期间的增长显而易见。通过一项调查和支付意愿衡量的用户满意度很高。即使在预算紧张的时期，TACOS也是一个简单、可行且非常值得实施的概念。
