Tanner and Green Cooperation

Tanner Library and Green Library first experimented sharing journal subscriptions in 2007
What this means:

  1. SUL places a single online + print subscription
  2. the print copy sent to Tanner Library for shelving
  3. and the payment shared 50%/50% between PHILOSOPHY and one of the two TANNER funds (in the Philosophy dept fund series)
  4. volumes transfered from Tanner to SAL3 depending on space in Tanner

This arrangement appears to be successful. After straightening out some initial glitches no issues have arisen that have been brought to our attention by users. In 2009 the arrangement was expanded to additional titles (working list attached). In 2012 adjustments were made after some unusually large subscription increases were experienced.
