| Abstract: | Blackwell’s Approval Program Coverage and Cost Study details subject areas and list prices of monographs covered by our New
Titles program for academic library collections. The Study reports on titles treated, not on copies sold—each title is counted
once, whether it was purchased by one library or by hundreds.
The Study presents information on numbers of titles treated and average list price, arranged by Blackwell’s subjects and then
by LC class, for all publishers and then for university presses exclusively. It also includes a detailed report of all treated
titles by NLM class. Additionally, the report includes a breakdown of the non-subject characteristics (e.g., language and
format) of treated titles. Since most of Blackwell’s Approval libraries are not profiled to receive books for titles coded
with the Non-Subject Parameters (NSPs) Popular works and Lower undergraduate texts, we exclude titles with these NSPs from
the Coverage and Cost Study.
