To reinforce the unequalled range of information available from Dialog and the variety of delivery options available.
To emphasis the authoritative quality of what Dialog provides.
Key Points:

Notes:
The largest Web search engines offer more than 3 billion pages. Much—maybe most—is of questionable value. While there is plenty of good, useful information on the Web, it is not always easy to discern the good from the bad. Nearly all the information from Dialog is copyrighted and not available via the Web for free. Also, according to Internet expert Brewster Kahle, (Internet Archive), the average life span of information on the Web is only 44 days!
