Abstract
A two-semester study of science periodicals usage at State University of New York at Albany was conducted to identify little used titles for storage or possibly discard. Even in this large multidisciplinary collection a small core of journals accounted for a large percentage of use. Use patterns over time were also recorded and are reported for selected titles. Use rankings are correlated with citation rankings reported in Science Citation Index's Journal Citation Reports.® Titles for storage and possible discard or cancellation were successfully identified.
