From celeste.feather at lyrasis.org Wed Nov 12 16:58:08 2014 From: celeste.feather at lyrasis.org (Celeste Feather) Date: Wed, 12 Nov 2014 21:58:08 +0000 Subject: [Lyrarl] 2015 UPSO Collections Offer from OUP Message-ID: <3efd89b9af074495ac30dfce25978099@CY1PR0801MB1002.namprd08.prod.outlook.com> Greetings, All! The 2015 offer for Oxford's University Press Scholarship Online (UPSO) under the terms of the ARL Licensing Initiative is now ready for your review. This year OUP is offering the 2013-2015 UPSO collections with a lower participation threshold, making it more likely that our group will reach a deeper discount. For 2015, all libraries are guaranteed a 25% discount off list price, and the discount increases if we gather a group of at least 16 libraries. The deadline for this group offer is February 27, 2015. Collections may be purchased in subject or publisher groupings. Of special note is that Oxford University Press is now adding its own titles to the UPSO site more regularly - 10 times a year, rather than 3 times annually. This new publishing cycle will allow the majority of OUP titles to be available within eight weeks of the print publication date, or sooner. Please find attached a memo with a full explanation of the offer, including: * Collection descriptions * Discounts available * Discussion of overlap with Project MUSE publishers * Link to ARL/LYRASIS group license * Link to 2013 and 2014 collection title lists (2015 forthcoming) * Link to 2015 pricing * Link to survey form to express your interest in purchasing an UPSO collection Thanks, and as always, I will be glad to address any questions.

This year De Gruyter will offer content from Princeton University Press and the University of Pennsylvania Press along with continuing content from Harvard University Press. Also, I would like to request that the messages and documents shared on this list be kept within the ARL library community. As part of the ARL Licensing Initiative advocacy work, we should all feel free to share information through our community conversations that may not be appropriate to share verbatim with vendors. Thanks, and I look forward to working with you again on these new 2015 ebook offers.

Details are in the attached memo and pricing spreadsheet. The Project MUSE/UPCC collections have gained a sizeable footprint in the marketplace now. I was glad for the opportunity to participate in two panels at the recent Charleston Conference with librarians that are delving deeply into their use of these collections. Harvard, Emory, and Yale presented their findings to date on the usage of MUSE titles in print and electronic formats. UNC-Charlotte presented an interesting case study of their successful outreach to faculty to select DRM-free MUSE titles as course adoption titles this fall. This year for the first time we have been able to negotiate special offers for smaller libraries in the MUSE pricing tiers. I am glad to see more opportunities extended to other libraries, as that is one of the goals of the ARL Licensing Initiative. In addition to the annual special offers for the entire MUSE ALL BOOKS collection and the annual "top-off" collection for the libraries that have already purchased ALL BOOKS, there are other Special Offers that extend through March 31, 2015. They include: * Early Purchase Offer on 2015 Collections for Libraries That Purchased Collections in 2014: 20% discount on 2015 Complete, or 15% discount on any 2015 Subject or Area Studies * 2013-2015 Complete Bundle: 20% off the purchase of all 9,067 titles from 2013-2015 * 2013-2015 Subject or Area Studies Bundle: 15% off the bundled purchase of Subject or Area Studies collections from 2013-2015 Please let me know if you have any questions, and I will be glad to work with you if you are interested in placing orders for the MUSE/UPCC collections in 2015.
