It looks to me as if the prices for these journals (at least the print plus online prices for the UK market) have gone up between 6.5 and 7.0%. Is that right? Do members of this list, especially the librarians, feel that in our current economic climate 7% increases are reasonable?
(I will leave it to non-UK colleagues to comment on the intriguing Sterling to Euro and Dollar ratios being used.)
Best wishes
