We're moving in that direction, but not likely to ever be completely electronic. It's too expensive for such a small library and we take a lot of esoteric journals.

Best regards,

Subject: [SERIALST] Libraries Moving Towards E-Only Access

Dear Serialisters,

Just out of curiosity, I am wondering how many libraries out there have
dropped their entire print collections/subscriptions and gone E-only!

I am hearing about more and more libraries following this trend and was
wondering how it has worked out for them and why they decided to make
that move.  Thanks!!  I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Best,
