Nexis

Any librarians out there care to share their strategies in approaching the
substantial license fee increase by Nexis starting July 1st? Although the
increase is phased in over three years and the first year (80% off the new
list price) is not all that hard to take, the increase is about 10-11 fold
for institutions who maintain the same mix of general and subsets of
Nexis.  What are any of you doing to deal with this increase? 

At the same time, there does seem to be move to a Web interface
effective mid-year, which is good news.

And the consortial license discounts as proposed, seem very good.
