Dear all,
Here at UCL we've just received our quote for the renewal of the majority
of our Nature e-journals. I was rather shocked to discover that the price
increase across the 14 titles was nearly 75% on last year.
I contacted NPG about the large price increase and the reasons that were
given were the introduction of COUNTER compliant stats and that the
e-journals were previously under priced in comparison with the print.
hmm. Seems like a big increase to me...
Has everyone else out there had a similar experience?
cheers
James
