Hi Angela,
We've been notified about this as well but like Nadine I can't imagine that we'll be purchasing the archive either as we only have three Informa Healthcare subs. I believe that it is possible to acquire usage statistics depicting archival access to subscribed titles from the supplier, although I have yet to receive ours.

Angela, yes we've already been contacted about this but I can't see us purchasing the archive.

Subject: [lis-e-resources] Informa Healthcare Archive
We have recieved an email from a representative from Informa Healthcare notifying us that as of 15th February 2013 we will not have access to any content pre 1997 and asking us to purchase the legacy archive, the reason they give for this is the split from Taylor and Francis.
Has anyone else been approached with this news?
Any feedback on this would be greatly appreciated.
