Hi Ros
This is interesting as we've enquired about individual titles on various
occasions and the reply was always that it is not possible; we must
subscribe to some sort of bundle. Where did you get such information?
Thanks

Subject: Elsevier - e-access to individual titles
Hi Everyone
We cannot afford Science Direct nor to subscribe to all our printed
titles as a bundle. When we enquired about e-access to individual titles
we were told that this would be outside of Nesli and would cost us the
princely sum of 25% extra on top of the print costs presumably plus VAT
as well. Has anyone else been told this? Can anybody in or outiside of
Elsevier give a decent reason why when other publishers only charge
0-15% and mostly 0-10% extra for e-acess, Elsevier feel justified in
charging 25% extra?
