Library Transitions to Targeted Elsevier Journal Subscriptions – Effective January 2026

Posted on by

UT Southwestern Library will transition from a multidisciplinary ScienceDirect journal bundle to a targeted individual journal subscription model, effective January 2026.

Key factors driving this transition:

  • Usage-driven selection to identify/prioritize journals with highest historical downloads
  • Elimination of redundant titles already accessible through alternative platforms
  • Strategic alignment with stable open access alternatives where available

All authorized members of the UT Southwestern community will retain access to articles via Interlibrary Loan (ILL), with no processing fees. In most cases, requests will be fulfilled within 24 hours through South Central Academic Medical Libraries (SCAMeL) partners and other lending libraries.

Consult the Library’s How to Request a Article from Interlibrary Loan tutorial for instructions on where to register for an ILL account and how to request and retrieve an article. The Library appreciates your understanding as they implement this strategic transition. For questions or concerns, use the Library’s Ask Us Form.
