Submit your feedback on Wiley journals for research and teaching needs

Kansas State University Libraries is seeking feedback on individual Wiley journals for potential subscription. This feedback will help ensure K-State's Wiley journals package reflects the research and curricular needs of faculty, staff and students.

After a thorough examination of subscription data over multiple years, K-State Libraries has categorized Wiley titles into three groups.

The first category consists of journal titles that reflect high usage; align with K-State research output, editorship and curricular needs; and support accreditation requirements. These titles will be used as a starting point for negotiations with Wiley. ​​View the list of titles to be used to start Wiley negotiations.​​

The second category includes journal titles for which feedback is requested. These titles may have varied usage, high relative costs or a modest level of university citations and/or authorship.

Specific title-level feedback will inform the Libraries' active negotiation with Wiley. While feedback cannot guarantee a subscription to a title, it does assist with deliberations.

View the list of titles and provide feedback by March 16.

The final category includes titles with lower usage statistics and for which resource-sharing through interlibrary loan or Express Delivery from Article Galaxy Scholar may be sufficient to meet user needs. ​View the list of titles with low usage.​

The overall goal is to steward university resources in a way that supports institutional goals. The Libraries does this by leveraging a combination of subscriptions, interlibrary loan, open access and Express Delivery from Article Galaxy Scholar. Utilizing multiple resources in this way allows the Libraries to balance the competing pressures of cost and convenience.
