Subscription Content Removal List | January 2018

For Subscriptions Only. This Does Not Affect Perpetually Purchased Content.

Alexander Street provides new content to our subscription products monthly. In the last six months alone, we added:

  • 1,000 titles to Music and Dance Online, including scores from Schott, Chester Music, Faber, and 70 Ernst Eulenburg miniature scores.
  • 550 titles to Academic Video Online and Demand-Driven Acquisition from publishers such as California Newsreel, Cinefete, Windrose, FilmRise, Music Box Films, London Symphony Orchestra, Arthaus Musik, Comedy Dynamics, Media Rich Learning, BroadwayHD, Sundance Selects, 7th Art Releasing, and Film Ideas.

The growth is ongoing, and results from specific efforts to bring you current, high quality video and other content.

Due to the nature of subscription products and changing requests from our publishing partners, we periodically remove titles from our subscriptions. To minimize access interruptions to users, we limit these removals to 2 times a year, in early January and July. These changes do not affect customers who have purchased perpetual rights. If you have purchased perpetual rights to any of these titles, you can ignore this notice. Perpetual rights holders are not affected.

We are reaching out now regarding upcoming changes to your Alexander Street subscription portfolio. On January 11, 2018, we will remove 133 items of content from our subscription products across a range of publishers.

If you have any questions about the Admin Portal or need log in credentials, please contact us at support@alexanderstreet.com. We would be happy to help you log in and demonstrate how to locate your subscriptions, download customized MARC records, and/or review usage statistics.

If any of these titles are particularly important to your users, you may be able to purchase the titles individually by searching the Alexander Street Store, or by purchasing other collections.

If you are using our Admin Portal to update your MARC record set, you can expect these changes to be reflected in your customized MARC file from February 1, 2018. Your usual workflow will pick up these changes automatically. We will update our data supply to discovery providers as well.

Thank you for being a valued Alexander Street customer.
