Hello Ed,

At Duquesne Universtiy, we count both the electronic journals that we
pay for and the ones we get free via Highwire Press, etc.  But we count
them separately and list them separately on Annual Reports, etc.

Subject: Counting Electronic Journals

We count electronic journal titles where we have a paid subscription
either individually or collectively (eg., Project Muse). There are two
other free access sites Highwire Press and DOA Directory of Open Access
Journals both providing free periodical titles full-text.  Do you folks
count only the paid subscriptions or are you beginning to include the
free subscriptions such as DOA.

Thank you,
