[SWANcom] EBSCO Year-2 Renewal: preliminary pricing with 86 libraries participating

SWAN Library Directors & Administrators, Attached is the preliminary EBSCO group purchase pricing with 86 public libraries participating, with 9 electing to opt-out. Should your library decide to opt-out of the group-purchase, you will need to notify SWAN using this form: https://support.swanlibraries.net/forms/80756 The deadline to opt-out is end of the day Sunday, February 28th. On Monday next week I will post the final EBSCO pricing along with SWAN's FY22 budget. That budget, membership fees, and EBSCO pricing will be approved via the electronic ballot system recently used for the EBSCO year-2 renewal decision. The details of the EBSCO year-2 renewal were shared at the membership meeting on January 12th. That meeting presentation and Q&A is archived on SWAN Support: https://support.swanlibraries.net/meeting/84220 If you have questions, please feel free to reach out to me directly, or to SWAN Electronic Resources Consultant Robin Hofstetter at robin at swalibraries.net or 630-326-7823.
