Hello Susan

I'm pleased to report that the Wiley-Blackwell 2009 Journals Price List has gone out to subscription agents today and we should have a version for the web next week.  I'll send out a notice as soon as it's there.  We apologise for the delay in getting these prices published this year while we merged our systems.  We will be back on track to get them out earlier next year of course, and thank you for your patience.

Best wishes, Emily

Many thanks for the clarification about this Emily.

I'm sure I'm not alone in wondering when the 2009 prices will be made
available? As this is budget decision time for us we really do need
accurate prices sooner rather than later.

Much obliged,

Susan

Subject: [LIS-E-RESOURCES] Wiley-Blackwell 2009 Subscription and
Licensing Options

Following a recent posting to this listserv and feedback from our
customers, we would like to take the opportunity to clarify some issues
relating to the new subscription and licensing options available for
Wiley-Blackwell journals in 2009.  You will find a full and transparent
explanation of the new options and how the changes affect Wiley and
Blackwell customers on our website here:
http://www.interscience.wiley.com/transition.  If you have any comments
or questions, please don't hesitate to contact your Wiley-Blackwell
Account Manager or me directly.

In 2009, customers can choose to subscribe to Wiley-Blackwell journals
in one of two main ways:

1. Through title-by-title subscriptions, with no limitations on
cancellations or minimum requirements.

In 2009, most journals from Wiley-Blackwell are available in the
following three subscription options:
- Print Only - 100% of the list price
- Online Only - 100% of the list price
- Print and Online - 110% of the list price

All subscribers with online access to any journal are entitled to the
following benefits in 2009:
- Free access to COUNTER-compliant usage data
- Unlimited concurrent users
- Free course-pack use and walk-in user access
- Campus-wide access across a single site, defined as a single,
geographically contiguous office building, complex, or campus location.
It is not a mailing address and may include more than one library and
dial-in access via the licensee's secure network.  This is consistent
with both Wiley and Blackwell's earlier policies.  If you are unsure
whether your institution qualifies, please contact us directly.
- Access to content dating back to 1997 (where available) during the
subscription year 2009, excluding issues in Backfile Collections
- Perpetual access to content back to 1997 (where available)

Please note that for customers who previously held a Standard
subscription to a Blackwell journal, we will be sending you a renewal
notice for a Print Only subscription in 2009.  If you would like to
switch to an Online Only or Print and Online subscription, please notify
your agent or our Journal Customer Services department promptly.

2.  Through the Wiley Online License.

Institutional customers may choose to commit to multi-year deals and
convert their current Wiley-Blackwell subscriptions (Core Collection) to
online only, if they haven't already, in exchange for an agreed annual
price increase cap.  Academic customers are entitled to multi-site
access for subscriptions held under a Wiley Online License.  Customers
who choose this route to content can take advantage of the following
options in 2009:
- Adding access to a Standard Collection of Wiley-Blackwell titles;
Full, STM, SSH, or M&N
- Building a Custom Collection or Sharing Access to titles held by other
members within your consortium.  Collection access is priced at a small
fraction of the subscription price of the unsubscribed titles
- Adding online books, major reference works, databases, Current
Protocols and journal backfiles as an addendum to your Wiley Online
License
- Adding Article Select Tokens to your account, to access journal
articles and book chapters in unsubscribed titles
- Adding print at the deeply discounted rate of 15% of the list price
(Previously Wiley's deep discount price was 10% and Blackwell's was 20%)

All customers with expiring Wiley or Blackwell licenses will be migrated
from the existing models to the new Wiley Online License, but until then
we will continue to honor the terms of the existing licenses.  For more
information on licensing online access to Wiley-Blackwell titles please
contact your Account Manager
(http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/aboutus/contactus/contactus_wissales
.html).

- Wiley's Online Platform

All Wiley-Blackwell's 1400+ journals are now available on Wiley
InterScience.  For the Library/Customer Administration area, we have
matched most Synergy and Wiley InterScience accounts so you will be able
to manage all your Wiley and Blackwell journals using your existing
Wiley InterScience Administrator login here:
http://www.interscience.wiley.com/customer.  If you do not already have
a Wiley InterScience administrator ID, please contact your Account
Manager or go to http://www.interscience.wiley.com/support and log a
request to be sent one.

Since we began consulting with users and customers on the requirements
for our new next-generation online platform for all Wiley products, we
have developed an ambitious plan which will begin to roll out in mid
2009.  This new service will be based on new underlying architecture,
will include new features and functionality for researchers, authors and
librarians, and will have a new interface based on extensive user
research and feedback.  It will deliver benefits for all those seeking,
serving and authoring research across the many subject communities and
society partnerships with whom we work.  The first release of the new
platform is currently scheduled for July 2009 with further enhancements
delivered in subsequent releases on an ongoing basis.  More information
about the new service and the launch plan will follow in due course.

- Usage Data Update

We are pleased to report that Wiley InterScience now provides
COUNTER-compliant usage data for journals and we now appear on the
Project COUNTER list of compliant vendors.  The usage data for all
Blackwell journals for the period since July 2008 is available to
download from Wiley InterScience now.  We still need to do some work in
mapping Blackwell usage data to the correct customers on Wiley
InterScience so usage data for the period January to June 2008 will be
added to Wiley InterScience later in 2008, followed by usage data
reports for the period January 2006 to December 2007.

- Renewal Notices and Customer Account Numbers

Last month we successfully merged the Blackwell subscription management
system into the Wiley subscription management system.  For former
Blackwell subscribers this will mean a change to your customer and
subscription reference numbers.  Some payment information and 'remit to'
instructions will also change.  All these changes will be notified to
customers with your 2009 renewal instructions.  Please pay close
attention when you receive these notices in the next few weeks and as
you place your orders for 2009.  If you have any questions or concerns
about your 2009 renewal instructions, please don't hesitate to contact
your Account Manager or Journal Customer Services or your usual
subscription agent.  Tax treatment and country rules will be applied
consistently across all Wiley products and services.  Please refer to
our payment and ordering information on Wiley InterScience for more
information on Australian GST, Canadian GST and European Union VAT.

- Multi-Currency Pricing

Wiley and Blackwell formerly priced in different currencies in different
regions.  Beginning in 2009, we will use a single currency in each
region, as follows:
Americas: US dollar (USD)
Europe: Euro (EUR)
UK: Pounds Sterling (GBP)
Rest of the World: US dollar (USD)

The exchange rates used to convert to these currencies are those
published for June 16, 2008.  The exchange rates will be updated
annually.

- New and Transfer Journals

Wiley-Blackwell continues its position as the world's leading society
publisher, publishing for more scholarly and professional societies and
membership associations than anybody else.  We are pleased to report
several major journal titles which are already confirmed as transferring
to our list and to Wiley InterScience for 2009.  These include such
titles as Stem Cells, Protein Science, Economic Geography, The
Laryngoscope, Biofactors, and the journals of the World Council of
Churches.

In 2009 we will be launching new journals for which you can opt-in for
complimentary access, including EMBO Molecular Medicine, Reviews in
Aquaculture, Review of Behavioral Finance, Clinical Obesity, Orthopedic
Surgery and Journal of Evidence-Based Medicine.  In addition, we will be
launching the first of the WIRES (Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews)
hybrid publications which combine the most powerful features of online
reference works and review journals.  The first title to launch, for
which you can opt-in for access, is WIRES Nanomedicine and
Nanobiotechnology, followed by WIRES Computational Statistics and WIRES
Cognitive Science.

- Journal Customer Services

We continue to offer global customer service including telephone and
email support 24 x 5 and self-help online support 24 x 7.  Many answers
to Frequently Asked Questions and the contact information for our
customer services departments and your Wiley-Blackwell Account Manager
are available on our site here:
http://www.interscience.wiley.com/support.

Many thanks for your continued support for Wiley-Blackwell journals in
2009 and we do apologise for any inconvenience caused by the bringing
together of our systems, policies and practices.  We are doing our best
to make this as quick and as smooth as we can and look forward to
working with you over the coming year.

Best wishes,
Emily
