IGI Global is collaborating with the Greater Western Library Alliance (GWLA) to provide discounted pricing to member libraries on their e-Collections offerings.
The discounts are available on all IGI Global e-Collections through subscription, perpetual, and EBA flexible acquisition models. The agreement provides member libraries with opportunities to support their faculty through the acquisition of high-quality, peer-reviewed research. Additionally, the discounted pricing allows this offering to be accessible to smaller institutions who may be experiencing budgetary constraints.
If your institution is a member of the GWLA consortium and you are interested in learning more about how to participate, or for more information regarding IGI Global’s flexible consortia agreements, contact Brittany Haynes, Director of e-Collections at
bhaynes@igi-global.com.
Additionally, if your institution's library is interested in benefiting from a consortia agreement, recommend meeting with IGI Global to your consortia leadership.
