Perpetual Access -Reply

[Karen Hunter <K.HUNTER@elsevier.com>]

Sallie Becker asked if there were agreements that permitted the library to
retain the electronic information if the subscription is not renewed.  The
Elsevier Electronic Subscription program, which is for the local delivery
and mounting of journal files, permits this retention.  Retention and use
is conditional upon observing the same access/license terms (i.e., one
cannot suddenly open the files to the world), but the library retains the
files in perpetuity.
