Subject: ALCTS Serials Section Journal Costs in Libraries Discussion Group
Saturday, Jan. 15, 2-4 PM meets in the Marriott Riverwalk, Salon D.
Topic: "Unwrapping the serials package: The California State University
library system's JACC Project"
Description: Explores JACC, a new model for purchasing electronic
journals for a core collection. This innovative model asks vendors to
disassemble their standard journal packages and provide CSU with a

librarian and vendor perspective. Participants include Sharon Chadwick of
CSU Humboldt, Marc Langston of CSU Chico, and Kittie Henderson of Ebsco.
