Abstract
  • As editors of the Marine Science and Technology section for the last three editions of Magazines for Libraries (MFL), we developed lists of journals and annotations to help guide marine sciences acquisitions for all types of libraries. We recommended essential titles at the same time we needed to cancel some of those titles from our own collections. We believe the idea of a “core” collection, particularly for marine science, is no longer a valid concept. Collection development decisions must be made in collaboration with partner libraries and take into consideration the costs and benefits of access versus ownership, use, open-access policies and journal impact.
