Anna,
We put all of ours in off-site storage, but it sounds like you don't have
that option.
As far as I know, no one has ever asked for the print version, and there
haven't been any problems with the online here to last long enough for
concern.
Personally, there is always an afterthought for me in depending totally on
online versions with indexes. But if you ever have a problem, you know
you'll have a bunch of ARLIS people to help you out. And if we all lose
connection, well, that will probably be the time when we don't care anyway
;)
Best,
Mo
