The retention agreement is in effect through December 31, 2035. A group of 24 ASERL libraries are retaining titles under this agreement. The current working title list (*.xls spreadsheet) is available here (Updated: 09-09-2013). Scholars Trust In early 2013, ASERL and the Washington Research Library Consortium (WRLC) signed an agreement to combine the contents of their respective print journal archives under a single retention and access agreement. The combined title list exceeds 8,000 journal titles and more than 250,000 volumes, making Scholars Trust one of the largest print journal repositories in the United States. At the same time, WRLC and ASERL libraries have agreed to extend reciprocal priority Inter-Library Loan (ILL) services across the group. To participate in the program, an ASERL library need only submit a concise letter of agreement signed by the library dean (or higher authority) affirming to comply with the program policies.
