  • The Oberlin Group Scientific American Letter 10092009-1
    October 15, 2009 Steven Inchcoombe, Managing Director, Nature Publishing Group The Macmillan Building 4 Crinan Street, London N1 9XW United Kingdom Dear Mr. Inchcoombe: We the undersigned are all library directors of liberal arts college libraries and members of the Oberlin Group, a consortium of eighty selective liberal arts college libraries in the United States. As such we are concerned with the education of tens of thousands of undergraduate students each year. A twenty‐first century liberal arts education includes an understanding of the scientific and technological underpinnings of our society. We seek to provide the students and faculty of our institutions with access to a broad range of scientific literature, including accessible, popular scientific journalism. As such, your increase in the 2010 subscription price for Scientific American magazine from $39.95 to $299 in print and from $1,000 to $1500 (depending on the size of the college) for an annual license for the online version of the magazine is unreasonable and hinders our ability to meet the information needs of our library users. This increase is disturbing for a number of reasons. First, the announcement of the increase came as many libraries were in the final stages of renewing their annual subscriptions to journals, magazines, and newspapers. This gives us little time to consult with our library users and make a considered decision about whether to cancel this subscription or not. Secondly, this increase comes during a severe economic recession, when most libraries are cutting costs and are asking publishers and other vendors to preserve long standing relationships by holding down or forgoing price increases.
