Datenbankbudget? Null. Nil. Zero. Zilch.

Kenley Neufeld, Bibliotheksdirektor am Santa Barbara City College, berichtet im ACRLog über die aktuellen Kürzungen in Kaliforniens Bildungsbudget: "When California community college librarians return to campus later this month, they may be surprised to find we've returned to the dark ages of research. The regular and ongoing funding, since 1997, that has paid for research databases has been cut 100%. For some campuses, this will mean no paid electronic resources. No Gale. No Ebsco. No ProQuest. Nothing". - Mehr auch in Neufelds Twitter-Account.
