Re: print leisure reading magazines Pamela Contakos 14 Sep 2006 15:35 UTC

We have kept leisure reading in print even if we have it electronically. For our academic, reseearch type journals we have eliminated the print if we have the electronic copy but if someone wants to sit down and thumb through The Economist it just isn't the same online.  We have also made a move recently to move all our leisure titles out of the library and into the coffee shop on campus in the hopes that they will get wider readership. We just started this a week ago so I'm not sure what the result is.
