Re: Electronic Journal Tracking Services

["Cecelia N. Boone" <c-boon@maroon.tc.umn.edu>]

To add another element to this conversation. . . .There are a number of
libraries in Minnesota and the Dakotas that are interested in a consortial
arrangement with SerialsSolutions, or one of the other electronic journal
tracking services, to provide holding information and other management
services for aggregator databases that have been licensed through
consortium-wide agreements.  Does anyone have experience with negotiating
for these services and using them in a multi-library setting?
