<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">I was wondering if anyone had any advice/examples/papers I should read about how to evaluate e-resources when you need to start canceling things. I have seen advice about
making evals for acquisition decisions, but not as much about figuring out what to cut. It just seems that there are so many factors—usage, cost per use, usage and CPU in the context of the fund code, whether it’s essential or not, cost, how long until you
can cancel, etc., etc. How have you come up with lists of resources to possibly cut?
