Dear Serialsters,
Our library (instruction-oriented) has shelving space problem. We are now
looking into solutions, one of which is to unsubscribe the printed version
of the titles which are found in fulltext databases on CD-ROM such as
ABI/inform, Social science index/fulltext. I don't know if this issue has
been discussed here, could someone refreshes me with the pros and cons? or
anyone knows research papers on the issue? (Please respond to me personally
if the issue has been discussed in this list)
Thank you for your responses in advance.
Eugenie
