Exact Editions announces the availability of institutional 
licenses for some of the publications distributed through
the 
Exact Editions platform.

The magazines are offered, with free trial issues which may
be 
used for evaluation, from the 'Institutional Shop' on the
Exact 
Editions web site. Alternatively link straight to:

The Exact Editions platform leaves the publisher with the 
responsibility of setting the price for each magazine (for 
individual and for institutional subs). If you click on the

'Subscribe' labels beneath each front cover you will see the

prices that each publisher has chosen. These publishers have

tended to set their institutional prices in the range of 3X
to 
10X the individual subscription. Both types of license are
priced 
at rather modest levels in comparison to commercial academic

periodicals.

There are a number of services which aggregate the content
of 
consumer magazines. We believe the Exact Editions platform
may be 
the first to provide library access to a range of magazines
which 
are exact digital replicas of the original publications.

In the last six months there has been considerable interest
from 
educational institutions in several of the magazines, for
which 
we have hitherto only been able to offer individual subs.
The 
institutional licenses are for campus networks, tied to IP 
addresses.
