This package is a compilation of two of the other packages on offer: Music and Performing Arts, containing 60 books. For institutions that are interested in enriching their collections on the performing arts holistically by opting for both packages, this combined package allows them to do so with a smaller administrative burden. This combined package includes 60 essential titles on the theory, history, and scholarship of music and film, theatre, and dance. It covers a broad geographical area with titles on Hispanic and Lusophone dance, German Cinema, African theatre and cinema, and Classical European music. All titles are in an EPUB as well as PDF format for enhanced accessibility.
The books in this package are shown below, or you can click on this icon to download the list of titles, authors, ISBN and year of publication in .xls format.
Library and institutional members are banded according to their size, in line with the Carnegie Classification and as recognised by Lyrasis. Based on this, our annual membership fees for a Single Package are:
| Tier | 2026 | 2027 | 2028 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Associate’s Colleges | CRKN Bands 1–5 | UK and European small | $1500 / £1040 | $1540 / £1070 | $1580 / £1100 |
| Baccalaureate/Master’s Colleges & Universities | CRKN Bands 6–9 | UK and European medium | $1980 / £1370 | $2030 / £1410 | $2080 / £1440 |
| Doctoral Universities | CRKN Bands 10–13 | UK large and European | $2700 / £1870 | $2770 / £1920 | $2840 / £1970 |
Membership is for a minimum of three years.
Shown in table are annual fees in USD (US Dollars, $) / GBP (Pound Sterling, £), excluding VAT.
DDue to rising publication costs, a 2.5% annual increase has been applied for annual payments. The slight annual rise in membership fees reflects rising inflation rates alongside rising production costs for publishers globally. This enables us to continue to use membership revenue solely to produce new OA monographs, moving towards an affordable, sustainable model for the future of academic publishing. And while the rises are around 2.5%, in real terms they are no more than a rise of around $20 to $80 a year.
If you would like to prepay your entire 3 year subscription, please let us know. The 3 year prepayment option benefits from a fixed annual price with no price increase during the 3-year term.
