NY 3Rs Digital Resources Survey
Please find a link to a survey below. The purpose is to gauge interest in two potential offerings for our member libraries:
1) Access to the Loeb Digital Classics Library from Harvard University Press, provided via Lyrisis. They are trying to recruit more consortia to their deal to drive the price down further than they already have.
2) Bloomsbury Academic has offered two months complimentary access to three of their digital platforms to NY3Rs members. If there is interest in a consortial deal from the membership, we will explore possibilities.
In both of these scenarios, we anticipate any potential offers being in line with the guidelines of the I2NY E-Resources Licensing Manifesto.
As the deadline for the Lyrisis offer is February 6th, the survey will be closing on February 1st.
