LAC Moratorium on Purchased Acquisitions

John D. Reid of the Anglo-Celtic Connections blog has posted a copy of Library and Archives Canada's notice about their moratorium on all purchased acquisitions.

All LAC orders for monographs are cancelled. Please do not ship us any new material. LAC will accept all items in transit that were shipped to LAC prior to receipt of this message.

LAC is also reviewing whether it will pursue the acquisition of subscriptions, standing orders and memberships.
He also includes notes about his conversation with Chantal Marin-Comeau, Director of Acquisitions.
