Hello Beth,

 

You might try Deep Dyve.  We haven’t used them, but they were originally intended for a non-academic market.

 

Hope this helps.

I am also interested in how libraries are dealing with pay-per-view journal articles. However, I am more interested in the products that libraries are using to provide the articles. We are a small library and do not have access to the same resources as an academic library. Does anyone know of a good multi-publisher pay-per-view product? For example, I looked into Get It Now from Copyright Clearance Center (CCC) but they told me it was unavailable to any non-academic library. I also looked into the British Library Document Supply Service (BLDSS), but it was really expensive.

Subject: [SERIALST] Pay-per-View Journal articles

 

I was wondering if anyone would care to comment on their current experiences with providing library access to pay-per-view journal articles.  I have read Patrick Carr’s and Maria Collin’s very helpful article  "Acquiring Articles through Unmediated, User-Initiated Pay-Per-View Transactions: An Assessment of Current Practices." Serials Review 35, no. 4 (December 2009): 272-277.

 

We’ve prepaid for some block  downloads of journal articles and have  provided patron driven access for books  but I’m particularly interested in both mediated and unmediated  ppv for journal articles.

 

Thank you,
