Through this consortia agreement, we wanted to provide an alternative opportunity for libraries to easily acquire subject-specific content while maximizing their budgets. This agreement provides cost savings, the opportunity to take advantage of flexible Read & Publish models, as well as the opportunity for librarians to acquire content based on evidence.
