Two hundred and twenty-three academic libraries in the United States and Canada were surveyed on their selection and cancellation policies. A majority have no written serials collection policies and no money for new subscriptions. In most, subscription and cancellation decisions are made by librarians or committees composed of librarians and the criteria used in these decisions are fairly uniform across the continent, with user needs and use statistics cited as prime factors. Cost proved more significant in the cancellation decision than in the decision to subscribe. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
