Yes, that's true. I priced the site licence (IP access) back in early Jan
of 2006.

Thanks for the good news, Alice .. I had just had a question about that
very thing not more than 45 days ago, so now I'll have to investigate
how much a site license will cost us! -- Peter

We also had the same problem and went direct. The key is to alter each order
so the first line is different for each copy-- you can even use the same
words, but alter the order (or you can alter the spelling). Only the first
line needs to be different, so we used a couple different variations on our
address.

We also had 3 print subs, cut back to 2 when we went online. The only way
that we avoided problems with multiple copies was to go direct. I had one
sub to my home address and brought it in to the library. The other 2 I
renewed by phone each year with a credit card so a human at the Chronicle
office could make sure the renewal was done properly. I've dropped the copy
delivered to my home. I'm still calling in the renewal to the other 2.
This is a common problem with multiple copies of popular titles. As we've
gone online and eliminated multiple copies, life has become a little simpler
in this regard. No matter how good an agency is, the fulfillment ends of
these publications just aren't set up for multiple copies.
Good luck--

We had similar problems (also with Ebsco) when we had a multiple copy
subscription. Now we receive it online and have cut our print
subscription to one copy. No more problems.

Are there any other libraries out there that have been having trouble
with getting multiple copies of issues of the Chronicle of Higher
Education? We get three copies through EBSCO, but every few months it
seems we start getting only one issue. Previously the publisher has
informed us that they've merged our three subscriptions into one. This
time when I contacted them I was told that they had three separate
accounts for us but that two had been put on hold.
Short of ordering them through three different vendors, or ordering them
from three different addresses, I don't know what else to do.
