Price increases for 2005 (Sandy Srivastava) Bob Persing 16 Nov 2004 21:39 UTC

Hi Serialsters:

I just need to ask -- has anybody else noticed that some subscription
prices have skyrocketed to over 100% or higher on their invoices?  I
just wanted to confirm that everyone else has seen these as well i.e.
Harvard Law Review, Marriage and Family Review, Personnel Psychology and
I have a growing list I could put up here.

I am used to price increases of 7-10 % but this is just crazy --?  Is
anybody else experiencing higher than usual increases on subscriptions?
Are the publishers having a free for all now?
