2004 Pricing
Through January 1, 2005, Serials Solutions price schedule will not increase for their A-to-Z title list, full MARC records, or Article Linker services. It is now offering community and junior colleges a 25% discount, in addition to the 15% CAUL member discount, towards the subscription or renewal of any of its services. If 20 or more libraries participate, we offer a 25% discount.
To view Serials Solutions' price schedule through January 1, 2005, please visit http://www.serialssolutions.com/join.asp
2002 Proposal
We would like to arrange a group purchase for the CAUL members. Currently, we have two clients that are members and only need a total of 5 to offer a 15% discount. If 20 or more libraries participate, we offer a 25% discount. Here is a link that explains in a little more detail the discounts that we offer. http://www.serialssolutions.com/consortia.asp
The process for setting up and facilitating a group purchase with Serials Solutions is fairly simple. ....We have a form called a Request for Quote that members fill out to determine what their exact price will be prior to committing. There is no obligation if this is filled out. It's mostly a decision making tool. http://www.serialssolutions.com/RFQ.asp. [Interested institutions should complete and submit the form online. In the field "how did you know about SS" include the CAUL email address.]
