This may not help your Friday afternoon, but: When I worked for a large
journal publishers, my boss said one day, "I now agree that the decision I
made last week was wrong but, as that is what I decided, I will stay with
it." When I said there was still time to reverse it, he said, "Maybe, but
given that is what I decided, I will stay with it."

Hi Everyone,

I just thought I'd add my voice an excellent example of a poorly thought out
"transfer".  

We also have lost all access to this title (right back to Vol. 1 1987 - when
the journal was known as Journal of Applied Sport Science Research) and
we've since found that our former print/online subscription has now
defaulted back to a print only subscription. As people have already
commented our former link
(http://nsca.allenpress.com/nscaonline/?request=get-archive) takes us to a
page not found! Also we have no access to the little bit of content at the
link provided by Dominic:
http://apt.allenpress.com/perlserv/?request=get-archive&issn=1533-4287. Like
Sandra we did check our access to this title on the former site quite
recently and everything was fine then, plus there was nothing to say that
any changes were forthcoming.   

I did make contact with the NSCA to try and clarify how we were expected to
know about this transfer and they told me that they put the information in
the printed journal as this was the accepted method to communicate such
changes?!? I did try and explain that librarians aren't likely to spend
their time scouring journals for this sort of information, and anyway the
print issues are filed away in our stack. I also asked whether they were
going to introduce some emergency transitional arrangements so that we (and
others) could have access to the archives up to the end of 2007 whilst we
tried to sort out what we needed to do to regain access to this subscription
of ours, but so far without success. 

I also queried this with OVID on the 2nd April following Dominic's
communication to this list, and was told that there had been some prior
communication about this, except I don't know who they communicated this
information to, it certainly didn't come to us as subscribers of this title.
As far as I am aware the only people that did know about this were those
institutions who are signed up to the OVID LWW Total Access Collection as
these new titles were detailed in an April Quarterly Update to this
collection sent out on the 24th March. OVID also told me that there was a
link on their web site at:
http://www.ovid.com/site/products/cts_update.jsp?top=2&amp;mid=40#2 about
these titles, but if we didn't know in advance about this change how would
we have known about this information being there? 

I've also searched through my files to see if there was any communication
from OVID/LWW about this change, but I can find nothing at all until the
10th April when it appeared in OVID's monthly C+T+S Update newsletter.
Strange that the information has only just come out! This transfer is a
total mess and couldn't have happened at a worse time of year for our users.
Didn't either of the parties think about our end users during this transfer
and put in place some transitional arrangements? 

Could OVID/LWW not provide some temporary access to the content we were able
to access until very recently on the new site to give us time to get this
sorted out? We librarians do have other things to do with our time than
constantly trying to react to problems created for us by inconsiderate and
poor planning. I do get the impression that OVID/LWW doesn't really
understand the problems that these situations cause all of us otherwise they
would have planned this transfer much better. 

Cheers
Lesley

Does anyone know if we are entitled to continue to access the 1999 to 2007
if we have a current sub (now print only, but previously included e-access)?
I cannot find any contact details on the Allen Press page. We are being
denied access to these years on the Allen Press website now, but we
ceratinly had access on 14.3.08.

Thanks
Sandra

These 2 titles are now published by LWW.  As many of you know, LWW titles
for institutions,  are only available on the OVID e-journal platform .  
We have a subscription to the package : ""LWW Total Access"" on OVID, and
these 2 titles just came up for us for 2008.

Kind Regards,
Arta

It's currently an LWW title I think. 
http://www.nsca-jscr.org/pt/re/jscr/
I couldn't find that it's available to institutions electronically. Perhaps
someone from LWW can let us know?

Hello all,

Since I last checked access to this title it appears to have changed URL,
and we seem to have access to fewer years at Allen Press:

New URL
http://apt.allenpress.com/perlserv/?request=get-archive&issn=1533-4287
Content available: 1999-

Old URL
http://nsca.allenpress.com/nscaonline/?request=get-archive&issn=1533-428
7
Content formerly available: 1989-

I tried to find what the licence terms are now but the site map is also not
available.

--

Also, National Strength and Conditioning Association Journal (former
URL: 
http://nsca.allenpress.com/nscaonline/?request=get-archive&issn=0744-004
9)
covering content between 1983-1993 is no longer available at all.

Best wishes,

Dom
