Want to learn about the latest development in cost-effectiveness of academic journals?

Join Our Research co-founder Heather Piwowar for an ALA webinar: Intro to Managing Serials with Net Cost Per Paid Use on Wednesday Feb 26, 2020 at 2:00 PM-3:00 PM (Eastern).

This webinar will discuss a new metric for evaluating the cost effectiveness of Serials: Net Cost Per Paid Use (NCPPU). NCPPU goes beyond the standard Cost Per Use calculation to exclude free content (OA and back catalog), incorporate ILL costs, and value citation and authorship.

The webinar is part of the ALCTS series — thanks to ALCTS for hosting! Details on the webinar (content, connection details, fee) here: http://www.ala.org/alcts/confevents/upcoming/webinar/022620

The recording will be made freely available in 6 months — we’ll post the link again at that point. Stay tuned for more webinars and conference presentations about Unpaywall Journals in the next few months!
