<div>I strongly disagree with the statement Ian makes that the smaller the institution, the more sense the Big Deals make. The kicker of course is “if you can afford them”. Smaller institutions, by and large, CAN’T afford them.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I’ve posted about it before and I will mention it again. What about pay-per-view? Pay-per-view (PPV) makes sense for some institutions like ours. We cancelled Big Deals with Wiley, Sage, and Elsevier, and implemented selected, title-by-title subscriptions
instead, with access to everything else published by those publishers via PPV. In the case of Elsevier and Wiley, this includes ebooks as well. We have a lot more flexibility and perhaps most importantly, control, over a significant portion of our acquisitions
budget as a result. And our users have enthusiastically embraced the dramatically expanded access while our library has enjoyed the dramatically lower cost.</div>

<div>I’ve spoken about our experience at several venues including the just-concluded Charleston Conference.</div>

we were hoping to rejoin that deal through the consortium but at a price closer to what our closest peer comparators were paying (for this particular deal our historic spend was higher than our peers). Not surprisingly, the publisher wasn’t interested in playing
ball on that, as it wouldn’t be fair to the other consortia members who’ve stuck with the deal. Our decision was to reinstate the bare minimum number of subscriptions* which should reduce our expenditure with this publisher by about 55%.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);">We remain amenable to rejoining the big deal if the publisher ever develops a pricing model that has like institutions paying like prices.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);">I do not anticipate that this will please our users, who have become accustomed to the all you can eat big deal smorgasbord, but the bottom line is
that this will provide us with budget flexibility for the next few years to improve funding to the things that matter – Special Collections, OA, Data, etc.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">I was just at the Charleston Conference where I heard a member of the audience at one session complain about having to pay for unused titles in a Big Deal package.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">I thought it reflected a lack of understanding of what a Big Deal actually is.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">So I want to emphasize something Karen says here: "when we calculated the alternative of subscribing to the most used titles, would be more economical to split up".<o:p></o:p></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Whenever I've done an analysis on our Big Deals that are based on historic spend, I find that the titles in our "core" (the basis for our price) are indeed by far the most heavily used. And
the smaller price we pay for "'all of the rest" is still very cost effective to have access to that long tail. That is, our cost per full text article used in the long tail is still well within our internal threshold for renewing journals, either in packages
or individually.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">The important point here is to actually do that analysis, and don't think of the titles in the package that you don't use as "wasted money". <o:p></o:p></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">You are paying a pittance per "all the rest" journal relative to their retail cost exactly because your use of them is expected to be very low and take the form of that "long tail" distribution.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

they were unsustainable. It was only after making these cuts (and explaining our intention to have to cut the biggest of the big deals) that the library was appropriated more funds. But this is only temporary…no more than 3 years. This decision will have
to be revisited. </span><span lang="EN-US"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
