Re: Consortia Pricing - JSTOR Response

[Anthony W Ferguson <ferguson@columbia.edu>]

re J-STOR

I thought it was clear from their presentation at the Consortial meeting
in 2/97 that they are still reliant upon grant funds at present and would
have to more than triple their subscription base before they broke even. 
In such an environment to try and get consortial pricing seems a bit
premature.  tony
