Changes With The Economist and BadgerLInk

Through BadgerLink, Wisconsinites have access to millions of journals, magazines, and newspapers.

Because of rising costs associated with providing access, starting one year from now in June 2012, EBSCO will no longer provide full text access to the magazine The Economist. However, EBSCO will continue to provide abstracting and indexing for this title.

Please note that lack of full text access to this title is not the beginning of a trend. This is a conscious choice by one of the BadgerLink vendors to reduce costs to its users.

If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact BadgerLink Technical Support using the webform found at http://dpi.wi.gov/rll/bl_sup.asp
