Expensive Journals
What do you mean you don't have this journal?

Have you ever gazed at the American Journal of Medical Genetics in Scott Library and realized it came with a $7,850 price tag? Or perhaps you have leafed through Neuroscience Letters and contemplated its yearly subscription cost of $5,696. If you have not yet mulled over the rising cost of journals, stop for a moment and explore the 2001 price tags on Scott Library's most expensive journals and journal packages. For your viewing enjoyment, we have added some creative possibilities.

Why spend $12,915 on Biochimica et biophysica acta when you can shop at Tiffany's and spend $13,000 on this beautiful necklace from the Garland Collection.
Details: 18 karat gold, 18 cultured pearls, 84 round brilliant diamonds, carat total weight 2.12, color grade G, clarity grade VS, set in platinum, 16" long.

For slightly less than the American Journal of Medical Genetics ($7,850), you can be the king or queen of the kitchen with a 60' Viking Gas Range ($7,699).
Details: the VGRC605-6GD is the flagship of the Viking Range products and includes 6 burners and a 24' griddle.

While Mutation Research ($9,516) may be essential for your research, Suzuki's new GSX-R750 ($9,449) is essential for having fun!

The Brain Research journals are a mind blowing $18,578, but for $18,000 (airfare not included) create a lasting memory. Treat yourself and three of your closest friends to a ride on the legendary Venice Simplon Oriental-Express.
Details: 6 days/ 5 nights, travel from Istanbul to Venice. Sightseeing along the way in Bucharest and Budapest.
