Dear HeinOnline subscribers, 

We are getting a good response to our 2nd Annual Bound Volume Survey, so if
you have not yet responded, please do so in the next 2 weeks so your
responses can be included in the survey results. The questions can be found
at the end of this email for those that may have deleted the previous
message that included the survey questions.

Also, in the near future I will send you a message informing you of the
latest new content to be added to HeinOnline, but in the meantime, after a
recent review of HeinOnline subscribers and usage, I thought the following
might be of interest to many of you:

1) HeinOnline subscribers are now in nearly 3,200 locations in 75 countries;

2) According to National Law Journal's 27th annual survey of the largest 250
law firms in the United States:
98% of the largest 50 law firms subscribe to HeinOnline;
91% of the largest 100 law firms subscribe to HeinOnline;
77% of the largest 200 law firms subscribe to HeinOnline;
71% of the largest 250 law firms subscribe to HeinOnline.

3) As mentioned above, HeinOnline subscribers can be found in 75 countries,
but in addition to the United States, the following countries have a
significant number of institutional subscribers:
52 institutions in Canada now subscribe;
36 institutions in Australia currently subscribe.
34 institutions in Japan subscribe to HeinOnline;
33 institutions in the United Kingdom subscribe;

4) From January through August 2005, HeinOnline registered more than
28,550,000 hits and more than 510,000 visits.

5) While the U.S. Federal Register is the most-accessed item in HeinOnline
so far this year, others that also rank high in terms of overall access
include Harvard Law Review, Yale Law Journal, American Journal of
International Law, Cambridge Law Journal, Foreign Affairs, HeinOnline's
Supreme Court Library, and HeinOnline's Treaties and Agreements Library. 
As always, we appreciate your ongoing support of HeinOnline, and welcome any
questions you may have about HeinOnline, or suggestions for content you
