Call for submissions: Acquisitions Issue in Serials Management
In my role as editor of a new column in _The Serials Librarian_
entitled "Acquisitions Issues in Serials Management," I would
like extend an invitation to any who might be interested in
contributing.
The inaugural column, which explains its scope and offers many
ideas for topics, can be read here:
http://content.lib.utah.edu/u?/ir-main,2055
Among the topics suggested are the following:
* Price inflation
* Exponentially increasing complexity in the marketplace
* Open Access
* Big Deals
* Collection development in an online environment
* Serials work as public service
* The subscription model itself
* Vendor relations
>From the Haworth Press catalog: "_The Serials Librarian_ is a
peer-reviewed and widely subscribed-to, international journal
devoted to the management of continuing resources that has been
published by The Haworth Press, Inc. since 1976. The journal
today is still a leader in the field, covering the many aspects
of the management of serials and other types of continuing
resources in all formats, with emphasis upon electronic
publications."
I look forward to hearing from any who would be interested in
contributing to this new column. Please note that my contact
information has changed since the column was published; my
correct contact info is below.
