Can the Library save money if it purchases only online journals?

Possibly. The Library has already changed most of its journal subscriptions to online only, but some are still received print only, or as a combined print + online subscription. The Library will review these to see if any can be changed to online only and if doing so will save money. Changing a combined print + online subscription to online only will usually yield some savings. Changing a print only subscription to an online only subscription can sometimes be much more expensive.
