But while Big Deals did appear to lower the rate of serials price inflation, they did not bring it down to manageable levels--and in the process, they limited academic library flexibility. This issue...describes a study that looks at the apparent damage caused by Big Deals over the period from 2002 (when most had been introduced) to 2012, specifically looking at details of acquisitions money for books and other acquisitions by type and size of library. Some possible approaches to improving the situation appear in the final chapter." 530 $a Also available via the World Wide Web. 650 0 $a Acquisition of serial publications $z United States $x Costs. 650 0 $a Acquisition of serial publications $z United States $x Cost effectiveness. 650 0 $a Acquisition of serial publications $z United States $x Evaluation. $x Evaluation. 650 0 $a Acquisition of serial publications $x Economic aspects $z United States. 650 0 $a Acquisition of serial publications $z United States $x Decision making. 650 0 $a Serials subscription agencies $z United States $x Evaluation. 650 0 $a Serials subscription agencies $z United States $x Cost control. 650 0 $a Acquisitions (Libraries) $z United States $x Finance. 650 0 $a Library finance $z United States $x Cost control. 650 0 $a Serials librarianship $z United States. 650 0 $a Serial publications. 710 2 $a ALA TechSource. 710 2 $a American Library Association. 830 0 $a Library technology reports ; $v v. 50, no. 4. 856 41 $u http://www.alatechsource.org/ltr/index $z Subscription to online journal required for full text access 941 $a 1 952 $l IAOX771 $d 20221029021456.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=609EEF30CFA311E9B77D544F97128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOZInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
