This year, the campus is facing the task of reducing our journal costs by $1.2 million for FY2021, which amounts to a 20% reduction compounded by additional subscription cuts at the UM System level.
What does this mean for you?
- We will be able to retain access to most of the high use journals, and the highly ranked journals with impact factors in the top quartile.
- We will need to substitute interlibrary loan & pay per view for some of the most expensive journals, especially the ones costing $10,000/year or more.
- The library will pay to get any articles you need in journals outside of our subscriptions. The
button provides the most convenient way to request articles. You can also submit article requests using this form.
