Bundled/Aggregated Definition Clarification???
Hello all,
Thank you for the suggestions of sources to consult for on the
topic of bundling journals.
However, I have read a number of articles and I wanted to make
sure I am clear on the definition. I am not clear as to how much
print versions of journals are included in The Big Deal?
Bundled/Aggregated Subcriptions Definition:
To have bundled/aggregated subscriptions to electronic journals
means the packaging of electronic and print versions of the
journal sold as a single unit; with stipulations in the contract,
depending on the publisher, if either all, some, or none of the
print versions will be cancelled, and/or the library may be
allowed to purchases additional print copies of the journal at a
discount?
That may be a simplified definition, but can anyone tell me if I
have grasped that gist of the definition.
Thanks,
