Online vs. print periodicals processing Yvonne W. Zhang 18 Jul 2002 21:50 UTC

Hi:

Are there any libraries considering not processing (i.i.e... checkin,
cataloging, claiming, shelving and binding, etc.) paid print periodicals
when online versions are available, cataloged and stable? This scenario
seems to save time, labor and cost, but are there concerns related to such
a practice? I would appreciate any thoughts or inputs you can give.

Please response directly to me, not the list. Thanks very much!
