Serials Watch List for FY2006

 

9/26/05 This page has been updated to indicate decisions made for 2006 for serials listed below.

Journals may be listed here to propose a format change, cancellation, or replacement. Reasons may include publisher price increase, publisher format change, duplication of subscriptions, low use statistics, feedback that a journal is dated or no longer needed, requests to replace one title with another (for instance, when a professional society switches publishers), non-delivery of subscription, etc.
