Many libraries still purchase individual titles directly from the publisher or their subscription agent; we consider this a “traditional” institutional subscription. In recent years, however, more and more libraries have joined together into buying groups, called consortia, through which they negotiate with publishers to buy packages of journals. SAGE’s sales team sells to individual libraries and to consortia. In just the last year, we negotiated a number of major consortia deals in which JCP is included. This now means that many more institutions, both domestic and international, have access to JCP, as detailed in the circulation table below. It also means that some “traditional” library subscriptions have migrated from to a consortial subscription, while maintaining access to JCP throughout. This table shows the circulation for JCP issue by issue from 2006 through the first three issues of 2007. As of this report, 1,240 institutions have access to JCP; in the next quarter, we will have more consortia libraries to report, as our sales team recently closed several large deals that will significantly expand institutional access to JCP. Please note that since we are still in the renewal season, these numbers are not considered final.

This is a combination of print only, e-access, and combined subscriptions. 2There may be a few traditional subscribers in this number, e.g., libraries which have migrated to a consortial arrangement but have not yet cancelled their original direct subscription. 3This number is estimated to be slightly understated, as the renewal season is still in progress during this period of time. 4In this quarter we saw an adjustment in the number of libraries with access to JCP through consortia. This sort of change happens when consortia allow libraries to drop out of their arrangements at various times in the year – 3 – © SAGE Publications Confidential to the ACCP and SAGE Publications SAGE Premier Another way that JCP content is available to consortia is through the SAGE Premier package of journals, which includes the entire SAGE portfolio of 452 titles. Sales of SAGE Premier are negotiated on a case-by-case basis by our sales team, and they are typically arrived at by determining how much a given consortium pays SAGE for all the SAGE journals to which it currently subscribes. We then charge the consortium an additional fee (known as the incremental consortia revenue) to allow each member institution to gain access to all of our journals. The advantages of this sort of deal are that all SAGE content is more widely disseminated and, hence, used; additional 'new' revenue is gained by SAGE and the participating titles; the consortium is less able to cancel its primary subscriptions; and the consortium is able to better predict what its future spending will be with SAGE. In a SAGE Premier sale, every journal which was part of the original holdings of the consortium will receive its full subscription revenue (i.e. it will experience no reduction in revenue by being part of the deal) and a share of the incremental consortia revenue. As for the incremental revenue, this amount is distributed among all 452 titles that currently comprise the deal regardless of whether or not they were originally subscribed to. The revenue is shared according to a weighting formula, which takes into account the subscription price of each journal and the number of subscriptions it has in total. By these allocations, all journals that are part of SAGE Premier will see more revenue as a result of being in a deal: journals already held by a consortium will continue to see their full revenue plus a share of the incremental revenue, and journals that were not originally held by the consortium will now receive a share of the incremental revenue. In reality, because of the number of journals involved, the incremental revenue is not a large sum for any single journal, so the main benefit should be viewed as the increased exposure and usage that a participating journal will receive and the decreased likelihood of cancellations going forward. This table lists the consortia that can currently access JCP through the SAGE Premier package of journals.
