If my faculty ask to talk with someone in the library about the budget, to whom should I refer them?

In some cases, I have both a 2001 and 2002 price for a journal. What budget year should I use when I submit my cancellation?

The committment reduction is six percent. Is the amount to be transferred from my funds every year the six percent per year or the total amount of dollars that I'm asked to reduce?

I have found my funds pay for a title that should be paid by someone else's funds. Can I include this in my reduction?
