From: "Kris Gerhard" <KGERHARD_at_gwgate.lib.iastate.edu>
Iowa State has been informed that, starting July 1, YBP will no longer
honor our usual discount on approval books from the following publishers:
Ashgate
CRC
Edward Elgar
Greenwood
Haworth
Edwin Mellen
Neal-Schuman
Nova Science
Charles Thomas
We are examining the output of these publishers to see if we can drop any
of them from our approval plan, or switch from receiving approval books for
one or more of them to receiving slips only.
Have other libraries received this notification? Have you made any
particular plans to address this loss of purcahsing power, by adjusting
your approval plan profile, writing the publishers, writing to Yankee, etc.?
Thanks,
Kris
