Patron-Driven Acquisition in Alma


AlmaRepository

Vendor

Discovery

• Vendor candidate e-book records (with URLs) are sent to the library

•Users discover and use e-books, triggering purchases

• Vendor delivers purchase details

•Candidate e-books that are not in use are removed from repository and from discovery

20

What Is Evidence-Based Selection (EBS)?


EBS, also known as EBA, is a DDA model in which libraries negotiate with a vendor or publisher to provide access to a pool of e-books in exchange for an agreement to purchase books valued at a set amount at the end of the program.

Differences Between PDA to EBS

Article Processing Charges (APC)


What is APC?

The publication fees that cover the costs of publishing the accepted article plus the cost of reviewing the number of submissions rejected for each accepted submission.

26

OA Market Revenue Forecast and Growth (APC)


The average APC (distorted somewhat by discounts and waivers, but excluding membership revenues) was about $660 in 2011; in 2015, this will increase to roughly $950 due in part to the increased number of well-branded journal publishers offering OA options at higher price points, and in part to the decline of low-value, extremely low-cost pure-OA publishers.

In 2011 194,000 (Articles) X $660(APC) = $128M In 2015 352,000 (Articles) X $950(APC) = $334M
