Information for Libraries

Subscription Program

To emphasize a wider and more web-based dissemination strategy, the RAND Corporation is curtailing the traditional print/pdf subscription program and MARC record service. Paid 2016 subscribers will continue to receive all titles published in 2016 through December 31, 2016, but no renewal notices will be sent out and subscriptions will not be accepted for 2017. RAND publications may be downloaded for free at www.rand.org/pubs. Libraries may also sign up to receive RAND email newsletters at www.rand.org/newsletters or subscribe to RAND's RSS feeds at www.rand.org/news/rss. Hard copies of most individual RAND titles will continue to be available for purchase at a 20% discount, and RAND ebooks can also be found on sites such as Amazon.com, Apple iBooks, Books 24x7, Books at JSTOR, ebooks.com, ebrary, Questia, and NBN. For information on the Library of Congress's MARC records services, visit https://www.loc.gov/marc/marcrecsvrs.html. For more information, contact RAND Customer Service at order@rand.org.
