Abstract
Moving beyond easy "keep or cancel" decisions can be difficult. This multi-attribute rubric, when used to evaluate and compare e-resources within categories or "baskets," gives librarians a holistic tool to assess all online resources. It is particularly valuable when faced with tough decisions about renewing or cancelling subscriptions.
