The cost of
journal subscriptions
continues to rise
and the prices will
shock you.


The Cornell Libraries subscribe to over 88,000 serials, a majority which are journals in paper or electronic form. Five years ago the most expensive engineering-related journals cost $4,000 to $12,000.
Now prices reach $18,000.
To get a better sense of what this much money is worth, please
