Steve,
Do you mediate usage of those tokens or let faculty use them to access articles directly?

Beth,
Our library continues to be a heavy user of pay-per-view (PPV) journal articles from Springer Nature (for all Nature titles except for the small number of subscriptions we have), Elsevier, Wiley, and SAGE. By PPV we mean, institutional PPV, which usually involves
purchase of chunks of prepaid tokens (the exception being for SAGE, which doesn’t support this approach at this time). For each publisher mentioned we also have some subscriptions.

It seems like awhile back there was some enthusiasm for a PDA model for journal articles. Is this still a thing? Does anyone have a list of publishers who allow this? I know Elsevier had one at one time.
We are considering access models other than the traditional package or individual subscription models.
Thank you ahead of time and enjoy the last holiday weekend of the summer!
