The Journal Chemical Physics Letters cut from Brooklyn College Library subscription list to save $6,900 and meet $135,000 drop in collection budget (fall 1996). Eight Pentium computers remain in boxes at Kingsborough Community College Library awaiting installation for access to Internet lines; shortage of college systems personnel mean the Library has to wait (fall 1996-spring 1997). Journal Subscriptions saved at Queens College Library but drastic reductions in book buying budgets leave some disciplines in the humanities with only a few hundred dollars for annual book purchases; subject areas such as history, philosophy and classics saw as few as two or three dozen new book titles added to the Library collection during each of these years (fall 1990-spring 1992). At 9:00 pm, engineering students at City College arrive at the College Library after a day of work and their evening classes to find the doors to the Library closing for the night. Work and family obligations will prevent them from returning the next evening before the Library closing (spring 1997).
