Selection process
The University Library will be conducting an ongoing, rigorous, analysis of subscriptions holdings, particularly electronic databases, to identify titles for potential cancellation. Cancellations are necessary for the sustainability of the Collections Budget and to allow us the capacity to purchase new subscriptions and other content that becomes available and is more relevant for teaching and research. There is pressure on the budget caused by a combination of exchange rate fluctuations, particularly between the Australian dollar and the United States dollar, price rises for subscriptions, and no commensurate increase in the Collections Budget over a number of years to accommodate those subscription price increases. We will strive to minimise inconvenience to our student and academic colleagues but some impact cannot be avoided.
The process we will follow is outlined below:
ANALYSIS PROCESS
- Databases with high percentage of duplicated titles identified
- Usage in the last two years analysed
- Availability and coverage of duplicated titles in other databases analysed
NOTIFICATION PROCESS
- Databases identified for cancellation will be listed on this site on an ongoing basis
- Newly acquired databases will also be listed on this site on an ongoing basis
- New cancellations and purchases will be advertised via your Liaison Librarian and the library's social media channels
