How libraries, publishers and other stakeholders are responding to hard times
Summary
For the last year or more the world has been reeling from the impact of the global financial crisis quickly followed by a good old-fashioned recession. Although there are signs that in some countries the formal recession is coming to an end, at least for now, the effects of this shock to the world economy have already been felt in the scholarly communications world, and are likely to continue, in many countries, for the next few years.
To meet the needs of librarians involved in the acquisition of electronic resources, UKSG is pleased to offer a practical one-day Licensing and Negotiation Skills course.
Unfortunately, it has proved necessary to cancel this course. It is hoped to provide the course on a new date later in the year.
Course summary
This is a new UKSG one-day seminar aimed at librarians, publishers and intermediaries who want to gain a basic understanding of the overarching financial planning strategies and structures which govern the ways in which the various sectors work and interact.

Managing e-resources and making them available to end-users is quite different from dealing with print products, but many of us have moved from one to the other, picking up expertise informally. As a result we probably all have
