Many thanks to those who answered my query.
There were four replies to my request for input concerning the possible
cancellation of the Allgemeines Kunstlerlexikon. Two art librarians
concurred that it would be the last thing they would cancel because
there was no alternative source with the depth of information available
through it. Two other art librarians thought it was dispensable. One
librarian said her library did try to cancel it but Saur refused to
agree to the cancellation on the grounds that this type of publication
requires long term support and Saur considers the standing order to be a
binding contract for the long term completion of the set. I agree with
those who think it is indispensable and I have decided to cancel several
periodicals to cover the cost of maintaining our subscription.
