Zinio price increase
From:
"Andre Levie" <ALevie_at_princetonlibrary.org>

Hello collection development people,

We signed up with Zinio through Recorded Books in February of this year.

In March the cost for our magazines went up 300%. We are naturally very 
upset about this and I was wondering if other libraries were hit with 
this unannounced price increase.

We also find it hard to believe that every publisher of the magazines we 
subscribe to all raised their prices at the same time by the same amount.

Thanks in advance for any information you can provide.
