From: "Moore, Catherine" <[log in to unmask]> Date: Mon, 18 Sep 2017 23:05:01 +0000 2017 Sep 18 Xiaotian I heartily agree. A related problem is annual invoices that don’t indicate how far back the library has access for each of the journals billed.

This journal is not part of a package deal. My library has 2 Sage packages (One Premier package and one back file package), but this journal is not on the package, but rather, is through individual title subscription. Years ago I set up in our OpenURL link resolver that our access is from 1955 (vol 1, no 1) to present. But today, a user reported that a request for a 1976 article was denied. I had a look and realized that our access now starts from 1999. That's loss of 44 years of archive. Should there be a movement to stop publishers from doing this? --- Xiaotian Chen Electronic Services Librarian / Associate Professor Bradley University, Peoria, Illinois, USA. 1-309-677-2839 http://hilltop.bradley.edu/~chen/
