Are cuts only in journals or will databases and book acquisitions be cut as well?
All resources are under consideration during these budget cuts. Databases are under review and some will likely be cut. Some initial reductions have been made to the Library’s book approval plan and departmental discretionary funds will see reductions as well. Due to advance notice required for journal cancellations, however, the journal cancellations will not be realized until fiscal year 2010-2011. Librarian subject specialists will work to ensure that the balance achieved at the end of the second year matches the ratio most useful to each discipline.
