Dear librarians and others,
Although we've been publishing Philosophy Now since 1991, we've never until now
carried out a large-scale worldwide mailshot to libraries. However,
we're planning
one now, mainly to draw attention to our IP Access package.
I'm designing the leaflet at the moment. I have two fairly simple
questions and wonder
if I can possibly ask your advice?
1) I've been told that July is by far the best month to send leaflets
to university
serials librarians in the UK. Is the same true for serials librarians
in the USA,
Canada and Australia?
2) I've been thinking of offering libraries a special introductory
deal - 15 months
IP access for the usual price of 12 months. Is this more likely to be seen by
serials librarians as:
a) A good thing, and a genuine incentive to subscribe;
or
b) A pointless irritation which will needlessly complicate their
renewal schedules?
Thanks!
