This study presents and analyzes the findings of a 2012 survey of member
libraries belonging to the Association of Research Libraries (ARL) on
publishers’ large journal bundles and compares the results to earlier
surveys. The data illuminate five research questions: market penetration,
journal bundle construction, collection format shifts, pricing models, and
license terms.
