I'm interested too.  What we've looked at is just duplication between print
holdings and aggregator offerings, but not at any other quantifiable
variables.  The only thing I've thought of is running the MAP formula to try
and balance things out with our serials budget.

        I'm trying to find examples of formulas that have been used in
Serials
        Cancellation Projects.  I'm looking for factors like inflation rate
per
        discipline, number students (graduate & undergraduate) and number of
        faculty.  Has anyone used a formula to calculate percentages for
possible
        cuts by discipline?
