As a small art-based institution, we still rely heavily on print. I do claim missing or damaged issues. In terms of success, we  often do receive replacement copies; occasionally, a publisher that can’t offer a replacement issue will extend the subscription instead.

 

Kind regards,

Subject: [SERIALST] Still Claiming Serials?

 

As a spin-off of sorts to the recent thread on Serials Assistant duties, I would be curious to hear from any libraries that have decided to cease the practice of claiming serials and the reasoning behind your decision and how it has gone for you. 

 

Feel free to reply here or contact me directly.

 

Thanks much.

 

Chris
