Publisher Updates for a New Subscription Year

Publisher Updates for a New Subscription Year 

Publisher updates will start arriving in email around October for the next calendar year. Pay particular attention to publishers for which we have comprehensive licenses: 

  • EBSCO 
  • American Chemical Society 
  • BioOne 
  • Oxford University Press 
  • Project Muse 
  • Sage 
  • Springer/Nature 
  • University of Chicago 
  • Wiley 

In general, you are looking for news concerning titles we have current subscriptions to. 

  • Take-over titles Check the list of takeover titles in EBSCONet to see if there are any we already have direct subscriptions to. If so, check with our EBSCO representative to see if we can cancel the existing subscription. 
  • Cessations Notify liaison that journals in their area are ceasing & when. If the subscription includes print, also notify Cetoria. 
  • Titles moving to another publisher Decide whether titles moving to another publisher need to be reviewed for adding a subscription. Check cost/use data to see if a direct subscription might be warranted. If so, research to see where the titles is moving. Consult with the liaison/librarians group about whether to add a direct subscription.
