Please excuse the cross posting.
A couple days ago I decided to take a closer look at the Ovid
Lippincott's Clinical Choice Collection of ebook titles.
There are 36 books in the collection. Of them:
2013=1; 2012=1; 2011=1; 2010=3; 2009=12; 2008=3; 2006=4; 2005=4;
2002=1; 2001=3; 2000=1 and 1999=2
(I used the date info found on the website but searching elsewhere the
date was sometimes off by 1 year)
Of these included titles:
CLINICAL ANESTHESIA, 2009, 6th edition is listed but the 7th 2013 is
available and it is a LWW title
Schiff's DISEASES OF THE LIVER, 2006, 10th edition--this title is now
published by Wiley as the 11th edition 2012 and access is provided to
the 10th edition
MODERN NUTRITION IN HEALTH AND DISEASE, 2005, 10th edition--11th ed.
2014 LWW is listed in OCLC but access is to the older ed.
REICHEL'S CARE OF THE ELDERLY: CLINICAL ASPECTS OF AGING, 1999, 5th
edition--the 2009 is published by Cambridge and access is given to the
5th
I'm disappointed. My expectation is that when we are subscribing to a
clinical collection we are receiving the most current edition of the
titles listed. Also, I didn't realize that the year with the most
titles is 2009. I will review all future collection purchases more
closely. What do you think?
