Who would have thought that the Clarivate announcement would be what finally got my using bsky? Anyway, reaching out tentative feelers, are any US librarians willing to chat to me about the shift?
I'm from a UK HE library and PQ have seeded the idea it's because the US market wants this move.

Question for HE/academic librarians - if you had a subscription package and were offered an 'upgrade' to your subscription, what would your expectations be regarding content inclusion in the upgraded tier? Would you expect it to contain all content from previous tier?

For the record, if I accidentally did two Nazi salutes back to back, I’d probably be using the social media company I bought to say “holy shit I’m sorry, I did not meant to salute Adolf Hitler twice on my big day.” In fact I think this would be the response of most people
