Subject: RE - Best one-time purchase recommendations
Check out Adam Matthew Publications at
http://www.adam-matthew-publications.co.uk/index.aspx
Thier products are very useful as primary research,
and the payment is a one-shot deal. Excellent for
history and gender studies programs. We
are consdiering the Empire Online product as a
way to use up unused funds at year end.

Subject: Best one-time purchase recommendations
Hi,
We have one-time funds available to us this year
which our Dean would prefer to see expended on
something other than books. Would anyone
out there be willing to recommend any outstanding
digital purchases they have made in the past couple
of years? Journal backfiles/archives?
Retrospective Indexes? Statistical data packages?
The only restriction isthat the purchase should
involve minimal or no maintenance fees.
UTC is primarily an undergraduate institution so
we are looking for purchasesthat provide the widest
possible coverage of disciplines or subjects
pertinent to UG programs.
I would welcome any suggestions. As usual, please
respond directly to me.
Thanks.
