Cancellations Fall 2009

Friday, September 25th, 2009

The University Libraries regretfully submit the following list of periodicals, serials, microform subscriptions, and databases that we will cut from our collections during this year.  The majority of these cancellations will go into effect January, 2010.  Some full-text content will still be available through alternative means of access, including via third-party (database) providers.  Please see our list of electronic journals to check the availability of any particular title.  Fortunately, we were able to avoid even deeper cuts by continuing to shift print subscriptions over to electronic access wherever possible. This shift to online versions typically saves only a modest amount of subscription costs, but avoids significant processing, binding, and storage costs.

List of Cancellations (HTML)

Decisions were made following consultation with appropriate and associated schools and individual faculty.  Such cuts are necessitated by the inability of the Libraries’ acquisitions budget to cover the rising costs of scholarly information and by the need to cull lesser-used materials in order to buy new items that are in high demand.  This list is multidisciplinary and arranged in alphabetical order by title.  While it does not come easily or naturally to us to cancel subscriptions, we feel that we have been able to work our way through a difficult budgetary year doing only minimal damage to the collections on which you depend.  Further, we are confident that efficient interlibrary loan and purchase-on-demand capabilities that have been greatly enhanced in recent years by computer technologies allow us to compensate quickly when you need something we do not own. On behalf of the Libraries, I would like to thank you for your continuing support, cooperation, and input.  If you have questions or concerns regarding individual titles, please contact Austin Booth habooth@buffalo.edu, 645-2814 ext 422.

Stephen Roberts, Associate Vice President for University Libraries

3rd Annual Back-to-School Garage Sale Another Success!

Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009

Better stuff, better bargains, and our best fundraising effort yet. This year we raised $2400 for UB’s Campaign for the Community. The proceeds will be split between this year’s designated charities – the Buffalo Prenatal-Perinatal Network, and Northwest Buffalo Community Health Center.

Thank you to all who donated merchandise, bought items, and the huge efforts of the staff (and the Alpha Sigma Phi Fraternity) who helped organize the sale.
