The "what if" questions were gath- ered in advance from the audience. Gordon Graham, editor of _Logos_, chaired the panel. 1. What if UK subscription agents were reduced to 5 only? 2. What if librarians continue to cancel relying on the just in time idea for data retrieval services and document delivery? 3. What if network access became a charged service, and commercial entities were eligible to use the networks? (Sharon Bonk) 3.[sic] What if universities establish their own scholarly distribution channels? What happens to commercial publishers? After all, _Na- ture_ showed a loss for its first 30 years. 4. What if academics were paid royalties? Perhaps there would be fewer articles published. Book publishers have cut back, and their prices have not doubled in real terms as they have for journals over the last 13 years. (John Urquhart) 5. What if Labor or Liberal Democrats win the election? 6. What if cancellations occurred for all subscriptions over a cer- tain unacceptable increase?
