Library Resource Changes for 2010
October 13, 2009
Due to budget reductions in 2009, the Library will be canceling 569 print journal subscriptions for 2010. For the majority of these print cancellations, the Library will retain online access. The change to electronic-only subscription licenses provides a small savings for the Library. Other resource changes included favorable license changes which will result in access to approximately 400 additional online journals in 2010.
The Library Collection Development Committee carefully evaluated all titles and chose those that had high online use and low print use, and were available via stable online platforms.
The print journal cancellations include Elsevier journal titles and the following list available on the Library’s intranet website: http://library.mayo.edu/about/2010JournalCancellations.html
