Abstract:

A kind of financial censorship is beginning to restrict access to materials that libraries in North Carolina can no longer afford to buy. Academic libraries, which must buy costly research materials and journals, are particularly threatened by inflated prices. Libraries in the University of North Carolina system have had to cancel subscriptions to academic journals, or request funds from other institutions.
