Re: Counting Electronic Journals

When I turned in our statistics, I turned in subscribed titles, not the
free ones. When I stop to think about it, I probably should include the
free ones as well since the count asks for the total number of electronic
journals [to which we offer access].

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,
