The PSR increased its rates once only in the recent past . In the now immortal words of The Bank of Canada: "... no inflation, only a 'normalization' of prices". Now that we are moderately certain that there is not going be a port strike affecting all surface shipping for a long time, there shall be no increase for 2025, despite notably volatile shipping costs (Canada Post) that reflect hefty and inflationary government gas surcharges and carbon taxes. Please note that the "Rate Card" and "Subscription" webpages are now merged and there is just a single page loading under these links, which shows current rates and offers immediate ordering and payment.

Libraries can order direct from the PSR, using the interface below (at Gross List Price - Institution/Corporate). To process a forward or retroactive subscription for a year other than 2025, just e-mail the PSR • • We shall invoice you digitally to the originating e-mail address. You will be able to pay using a broad choice of cards, depending on country and region. All pricing on this site is in Canadian dollars (CAD) . The relevant exchange rate of your subscription is determined by our payment processor, which currently is PayPal. The rate is correlated to your own bank or credit institution, in your country of residence or the country of account -- not necessarily the same thing.

ADVISORY: We re-post this Advisory. We are continuing to offer PayPal™ transactions and invoices. There may not be, however, a ground for sustained transacting through PayPal™ in the long run., if PayPal™ pursues radical ideological postures. A 'trusted' international payments processor (PayPal™) cannot operate like a select 'Ideology Club' or 'Political Association'. At least technically, PayPal™ stands in the category of 'common carrier', 'public accommodation', or 'business providing a service'. That, ipso facto, must utterly preclude ALL politically driven 'denial of service' -- i.e.'de-banking' (' "cause-driven" banking', 'activist banking') contingent on views, ideology, politics, thought, expression, etc. Otherwise, there is not even minimally viable ground for any 'agreement' about services. Our principle is: You want to do business in a public sphere? Then leave aggressive politics and ideology strictly in your private sphere, where they belong (or run for political office, in free and open and strictly scrutinized elections). MOST of our standing subscribers & library / corporate subscription handlers have agreed to revert to hard copy cheque, to mitigate such multi-lateral clear and present operating dangers, which persist .
