It may not be quite what you are looking for, but some of the resources I use when looking at costs and inflation are the annual LJ Periodicals Price Survey: http://lj.libraryjournal.com/2013/04/publishing/the-winds-of-change-periodicals-price-survey-2013/

 

And the Baker & Taylor Annual Book Price Update:

Hello all.  I’m a new electronic resource librarian and have been looking at inflation impact on the materials budget.  Does anyone have or know of a seminal article they can recommend?  Thank you!
