What if the faculty member had it sent to a different address? How
would Elsevier know?
I understand that they don't want faculty copies, paid for at a lower
rate, to drift into the library collection, but how can they prevent and
individual researcher from obtaining needed information?

Julie,
Yes, Elsevier will not allow individual faculty to subscribe to
particular journals unless the college/university library has a
subscription as well. I confirmed this with their customer service
department.

Jennifer,
Well, I haven't heard of this at all, because I'm not even sure
what you're saying. By "restricting" do you mean that Elsevier will not
allow individual faculty to subscribe if the organizational library
doesn't? That seems like a real way to lose even more customers! Except
for research institutions, most of us can't afford to support individual
faculty research, so I can think of lots of instances in which an
individual would want a subscription that the library doesn't have. Or
are they simply refusing to allow the issues to be donated to a library?
That I can more easily understand.
