I notice that the new [JISC Collections](https://www.jisc-collections.ac.uk/?ref=lorcandempsey.net) service has made available an “[academic database assessment tool](https://www.andrews-consultancy.com/jisc%5Fdatabase%5Fassessment/?ref=lorcandempsey.net)” to help libraries as they make choices about A&I and related services.

> This database assessment site aims to help libraries to make informed decisions about future subscriptions to bibliographic databases.
> 
> - The site provides access to detailed information and title lists for **15 major bibliographic and citation databases**, and key service information for **8 major content platforms**.
> - In each case the information provided has been **sourced directly from the relevant suppliers** and is presented here as a resource to assist librarians in their purchasing decisions.
> - The site provides functionality to **compare databases automatically**. Any combination of databases can be selected in order to generate **lists of overlapping and unique titles**.

Incidentally, [JISC](https://www.jisc.ac.uk/?ref=lorcandempsey.net) has also overhauled its website since the last time I looked.
