Why doesn the library subscribe to a journal online if it gets it in print?
Various factors are considered when the library decides to license an online version of a journal that it already gets in print. Some publishers provide the online content free with a paid print subscription. Others will charge an additional cost or the price of an additional subscription. Another reason may be that the publisher does not offer an institutional subscription that would allow the whole campus to view the e-journal. If you would like to suggest that the library acquire access to a particular electronic title, then please contact the Associate Director, Heidi Nickisch Duggan or fill out the Request an Item be Added to the Collection form.
