  New Journals and Improved Online Access for 2007

Marriott Library continues to start new subscriptions and to change to the online format most readers prefer for most journals. 645 titles were added or enhanced this year. There is almost no budget for new journals or expanded access; they are paid for by canceling other subscriptions.

We start subscriptions when:
-someone asks us to. We receive suggestions and try hard to start them. Last year we were able to say yes to 85% of the titles requested by faculty.
-patrons are consistently requesting interlibrary loans for a journal Marriott doesn't own.
-publishers add a title to their package. Some scholarly societies and university presses have reputations for quality and reasonable prices. We buy discounted package deals and receive every new title. This explains titles on this list which seem peripheral to campus interests.
-we participate in a regional or national project. The Utah Academic Library Consortium buys titles like JSTOR backfiles for all its members. Marriott is committed to supporting new models of scholarly communication by buying most products SPARC endorses.

Of broad interest this year: All current journals from Sage (319 titles added or reinstated), New York Review of Books (current and archive online - register for email delivery).

- Open access journals aren't usually listed here but they are in our catalog, our e-journal list, and at DOAJ .
- Tips for using electronic journals. Be notified when new issues arrive or articles of interest are published.
