University of Iowa Libraries looking to cut journal, database, e-book subscriptions - Vanessa Miller, the Gazette

University of Iowa Libraries must trim spending on journal, database and e-book subscriptions by $600,000, and it’s initiated a campuswide discussion about which resources to drop. Subscription price hikes paired with a flat UI budget have compelled the cuts, which UI Libraries must identify by April 2019 in time to implement for the 2020 budget year that begins July 2019, according to UI officials. https://www.thegazette.com/subject/news/education/university-of-iowa-libraries-looking-to-cut-journal-database-e-book-subscriptions-20181025
