Hope someone can help out there! Our school corporation (Fort Wayne Community in Indiana) is involved in a joint venture with our local public library (Allen County PL) and Indiana-Purdue University at Fort Wayne (IPFW) to investigate sharing electronic information resources, i.e. subscribing jointly so that all of us can have access at a reduced cost to all. In September, we will be traveling to Indianapolis to attend a database vendor fair (Ebsco, OCLC, Information Access, etc. will be there). In anticipation of this, has anyone out there had experience dealing with these vendors, either jointly with other libraries or alone? What questions did you ask when talking with them before using their services? Any suggestions or cautions? Good or bad experiences? TIA for the great responses I'm sure I will receive, as I always do! Kevin Roe Fort Wayne (IN) Community Schools KevinSRoe@aol.com
