We use EBSCO -- investigated other "cheaper" vendors a year or so ago -- looks
like you really get what you pay for...

We aren't considering moving away from EBSCO anytime soon.

hi all:

A colleague at a neighboring college asked me for information about periodicals vendors besides Ebsco of which they are a customer. Apparently an audit turned up the fact that there are other vendors that are cheaper. Personally, I think the agony of getting titles transferred from one vendor to another is not worth the lesser cost, but that's my opinion.

I told her I would ask this list for ideas of a different periodicals vendor that you love (or that you hate), I'd love to have that info.

Thanks

Lynn
