You – or your administrators – also might already have a general number that you turn in annually for insurance. It might be easiest to use that number.

I don’t know what your purpose is in determining their value. If it is to justify keeping the print, you can see what the cost is for online access to the archives of the periodical.
We have used that to explain to administrators why we keep certain print periodicals.

Subject: [SERIALST] periodical archive cost
Hello,
My library has a somewhat large collection of print periodicals. For example, we have Nature in print from Volume 1 in 1869 to the present day.
I am interested in determining how much the periodical is worth simply sitting on the shelf. For example, how much would Nature in print from 1869 to the present issue be worth? I have been searching for a way to best determine this
dollar figure without much luck.
Has anyone else done something similar that may have some suggestions? Or suggestions for resources I can use?
Thanks in advance.
