***Cross-posted to multiple lists; please excuse duplication.*** Dear colleagues The subscriptions (e-journals, p-journals, databases) budget at the University of Cape Town Libraries is facing a budget cut. Our finance department has asked us to draw up scenarios on what the impact to the university will be if the subscriptions budget is cut by 5, 10 and 15%? Have you undertaken such an exercise recently? Or even a straight-forward review/cancellation exercise? What are some of the criteria you used to evaluate titles for retention or cancellation? Thank you Regards Caroline Caroline Dean Acquisitions Manager University of Cape Town Libraries, Private Bag X3, Rondebosch, 7701, South Africa.
