Replacing Subscriptions: Article Access Via Pay Per View

College Science Librarians Discussion Group and ALCTS Serials Section 
Journal Costs in Libraries Discussion Group

Sunday, June 24, 1:30 - 3:30 pm
Capital Hilton, Senate Room

Is your library seeking a way to stay within its materials budget and 
still satisfy the needs of student and faculty for access to periodical 
articles?  The Trinity University Library cancelled subscriptions from 
one major publisher and switched to a pay-per-view model.  In this 
discussion, Trinity librarians will address budgetary dilemmas, public 
relations, faculty input, and student issues in a pay-per-view 
environment.  Linda Beebe (Senior Director of PsycINFO, American 
Psychological Association) will offer comments from the professional 
society and publishing point of view, while Claire Ginn Winthrop
(Director
of Library Services, Ingenta) will discuss the role of the service 
provider as an intermediary between publishers and libraries.
