East Central University's mission is to foster a learning environment in which students, faculty, staff, and community interact to educate students for life in a rapidly changing and culturally diverse society. Within its service area, East Central University provides leadership for economic development and cultural enhancement.

We just had a visit from Jason Brown of ACS.  He gave us the astounding news that our ACS subscriptions were going DOWN $10,000.00 next year.  It seems some libraries are going up and some are going down depending on whether they had been too low or too high to begin with. 

This link was shared with us by our director; it is totally pertinent reading for this group. 

You may have seen it already, but if not it’s what SUNY Potsdam is doing to deal with the American Chemical Society.
