Changes to EPIC package for 2013/2014

Our 2012/2013 EPIC package subscription expires at the end of March. From April onwards we will have a new EPIC package which will no longer include the Gale databases, ProQuest Science journals and Encyclopaedia Britannica.

The Discovery Team will begin removing the records for the databases on Thursday afternoon. Multisearch will be updated 1-2 days later.
The individual ejournal and eBook records will be removed from the Catalogue in early April when we receive our next Serials Solutions update file.

We will retain access to a small number of eBooks in the Gale Virtual Reference Library because we have purchased the titles.

The GVRL titles that we own are:
Dictionary of Scientific Biography
Blackwell Encyclopedia of Management
(12 volumes)
Encyclopedia of Volcanoes
Treaties & Alliances of the World
