Toronto Library Could Get a Better Deal on $815K Purchase of Magazine Subscriptions

MIAMI, Dec. 11, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Recently it came to light that the Toronto Public Library spends $815,000 on magazine subscriptions.  While it's not surprising as libraries of all sizes offer magazine subscriptions to their patrons, it appears that the library has not gotten the best value for the dollar. 

Certain magazines are fairly expensive and overlap in content with high quality but much less expensive magazines. By choosing the less expensive publications the library could have saved as much as 30% without sacrificing the breadth of collection.  Acclaim Subscriptions Canada library subscription specialists are available to assist libraries, businesses and individuals on maximizing value of their magazine collections at no extra cost. 

With increased automation of subscription business due to the computerization over the past 15 years and the advent of the Internet, discount magazine subscriptions are easier to find in Canada.  There is no longer a reason to pay full subscription prices on popular magazine subscriptions. Many magazines such as Better Homes & Gardens magazine, Shape magazine and Taste of Home magazine are available at discounted prices. 

It's very easy to do comparison shopping when buying a Canadian magazine subscription and to find the best deals on magazines on the Internet.  Even for US magazines and European magazines such as Men's Fitness magazine, Cosmopolitan magazine and Seventeen magazine, significant savings can be found on subscriptions.  The Toronto Public library could have saved at least 10% by comparison shopping for cheap magazine subscriptions. That translates to as much as $81,000 – a good deal of money for a cash-strapped library.
