Subject: cost of publications

We have placed nearly all our subscriptions to the agency Europeriodiques
(about 200). But due to a budget restriction we have to reconsider our list
of serials and possibly cut a part of them.

We know that Kluwer increased its prices of about 20 % in the period
1993-95, more than the usual 5 % increase that we can expect each year.
How is it for the other publishers, what is the general "feeling"
concerning prices for 1996, does anybody have more informations ?

Please reply to the list. Thank you for any help you can give.
