Addressing Customer Concerns

No one-time payment option for Archives 2006: Introduced one-time payment option

Paying for same content multiple times 2006: Removed rolling access model

No content archiving plan 2006 - 2008: Participating in CLOCKSS

project; discussions with Portico

E-pricing based on historical print purchases, including duplicates 2007 - 2009: Planned introduction

of new pricing model

Towards a New Model

Tier-based models have been introduced by Societies and not-for-profit publishers

New model must include a new way of calculating journal prices Value-based metrics (usage,

impact factors, citations) Account for different types of institutions

Discuss with customers in advance Plan to introduce to US and Canadian

customers in 2007; other countries to follow in 2008 and 2009

Transition plan necessary to migrate, over time, institutions which will experience significant change (up or down)

ACS 2007 Pricing Model (under development)

Create tiers based on Carnegie classifications

Include usage percentiles within tiers to account for different types of institutions within tiers (eg, some offer more chemistry courses than others)

Differentiate between types of institutions (eg, academic, corporate, government) with different requirements
