I would be curious to know what it is that SPIN is not doing that people feel it should be doing. Or that they find is working better in other products. All of these products have limitations and oftentimes it comes down to, in my opinion, the lack of user understanding of these limitations.  I tell faculty to search broadly and to have the patience to sift thru a lot what may be irrelevant. I doubt there is any product that will always find just what is right for Dr. Smith AND put it at the top of the hit list.

Until recently I would have agreed with Pete, but we made a new concerted effort to work with the SPIN people to make it more useful to us and to faculty. They offered helpful directions on how to make the searches and notifications more relevant. It does require upkeep! I might suggest you contact them and speak with them, before you decide no. I do believe it can work beneficially.

You are better off putting your own database together, I have never seen Spin work properly.
