- Libraries are increasingly moving to e-journals due to user demands for anytime, anywhere access and limited storage space for print journals, though this also raises issues around long-term access and preservation. - When considering cancelling print subscriptions, libraries should check what backfile access is included in e-journal subscriptions and access terms after cancellation to ensure perpetual access. - Model licenses include clauses to ensure perpetual access to backfiles and post-cancellation access that libraries should check for or add when negotiating licenses.
