*Duke University Press launches e-Duke Scholarly Collection, hosted by
HighWire Press*

Duke University Press is pleased to announce the official launch of its
new e-Duke Scholarly Collection, hosted by HighWire Press at Stanford
University. The new e-Duke Scholarly Collection will replace the interim
electronic journals package that was offered in the summer of 2004 to
the libraries that had formerly accessed Duke's humanities and social
sciences journals via Project Muse.

"We are proud to have partnered with HighWire Press, an influential
leader in electronic publishing in its development and provision of
premier electronic hosting technology, and also an invaluable resource
and friend to the scientific and academic communities," commented Duke
University Press Director Steve Cohn. "Our partnership with HighWire,
whose mission statement so closely mirrors our own as a university
press-that is, a shared commitment to advance the frontiers of knowledge
and contribute significantly to the international community of
scholarship-will undoubtedly benefit our subscribers and the larger
academic and research communities that we serve."

A division of Stanford University Libraries, HighWire earned the 2003
Association of Learned and Professional Society Publishers Award for
"Service to Not-for-Profit Publishing." With this new partnership,
subscribers to the e-Duke Scholarly Collection will reap the many
benefits of HighWire's impressive list of features-including toll-free
access across cited journals within HighWire's collection-and its
commitment to preservation, as Duke University Press will now become a
participant in the Stanford-based LOCKSS program (Lots of Copies Keeps
Stuff Safe).

The e-Duke Scholarly Collection includes online access to twenty-nine
Duke University Press humanities and social science journals (see list
below), including a newly acquired title for 2006, /New German
Critique/. Pricing for the collection is based on the regular
subscription rate of twenty titles; the nine journals that remain
available on Project Muse are included in the e-Duke Scholarly
Collection for no additional cost. Access to all twenty-nine journals in
the collection includes not only the 2006 issues as they are published,
but also all available issues from the 2000-2005 volumes.

Derived from the model originally created by Project Muse, the e-Duke
Scholarly Collection pricing model will combine a tier system, based on
Carnegie classifications, with usage statistics to create price
categories. As no reliable usage statistics are currently available, the
2006 and 2007 e-Duke Scholarly Collection prices for all libraries will
be based on median usage. Based on this calculation, all institutions
that subscribe for 2006 and/or 2007 will receive discounts of 33-84% off
the full value of the collection. Once Duke University Press has
reliable 2006 usage statistics from HighWire Press, usage quartiles will
be implemented in combination with the current tiered pricing to
determine e-Duke Scholarly Collection rates in 2008.

Finally, in combination with the electronic collection, Duke University
Press is also pleased to introduce a tiered, substantially discounted
pricing model for print subscriptions as add-ons to the e-Duke Scholarly
Collection, with e-Duke subscribers receiving discounts of 60-80% off
the normal print prices.
