We pull our electronic resources including aggregates into one category.
We make no attempt to separate aggregate titles per discipline. There is
far too much overlap. We have learned that accreditation agencies are very
willing to accept broad interpretations of collection support, including
subsidized document delivery programs.

I would like to hear about experiences libraries have with funding
aggregates such as Project Muse and J-Stor. Do most libraries use one
fund line for aggregates? Are there any libraries which are able to
pull off the complex gymnastic of distributing the funds for the
individual journals in aggregates to specific subject lines?
Many thanks/Adam Rosenkranz
