Due to the Sarbanes-Oxley laws,
many electronic information product vendors are restricted to offering one
trial per product per calendar year. Colleges, departments, and faculty should include the library in all communications
with electronic information product vendors. When you contact the appropriate designated
library liaison, that librarian can work with library departments and the vendor regarding consortial
buying and
product discounts, research product reviews and title overlaps, and set
up trials and
link to the products.
