[Eril-l] Communicating with the user community when cancelling electronic resource subscriptions

[Robert Wolf]

Hello,

We've been trying to develop a protocol for alerting our user community when the library is cancelling or discontinuing a database or e-resources subscription. We currently send notification via our faculty listserv, but it seems they're always surprised when a resource is no longer available. I was wonder what, if any steps, other libraries take to alert their communities, and have they been effective?
Please feel free to respond to me off list.

Thank you,

Rob
