Subject: ??PRICING MODELS??


Dear Colleagues:

MLC has established an ad hoc committee of our academic library members to
discuss a new paradigm for pricing.  We are well aware that the following
"basic" forumlas are currently in use:

	Number of SUs
	Number of FTE
	A modified/weighted FTE
	Usage statistic

???Our question is this:  Is there any other approach any of you have
tried????
