Netropolitan has criticised the British Library (http://ww.bl.uk) for
limiting online access to academic institutions and professional researchers (1

http://opac97.bl.uk/. This includes all books acquired after 1975. The indexes
for books from before 1975 are still being digitised. How could Netropolitan
fail to be impressed, when the index quotes 鈥渘ew scientist鈥� as its example title
search phrase?
