Really simple XML question

| How do I print the value of 'Time Magazine'?
Here is my file (ejournlist.xml):
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<EJOURNLIST>
<EJOURN>
<TI>Africa Confidential</TI>
<ISSUE>Vol. 1, no.1</ISSUE>
<FILEFORMAT>PDFformat</FILEFORMAT>
</EJOURN>
<EJOURN>
<TI>Time Magazine</TI>
<ISSUE>Vol. 1, no.1</ISSUE>
<FILEFORMAT>TXTformat</FILEFORMAT>
</EJOURN>
</EJOURNLIST>
Here is my script:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use XML::Simple;
use Data::Dumper;
#create object
my $xml = new XML::Simple;
#read XML file
my $data = $xml->XMLin("ejournlist.xml");
#print output
print Dumper($data);

What do you mean by 'value'? I see no element <value > or even <VALUE >
and no attribute with those names.
