Subject:  Purchase of E-Book Collections via Monographic Vendors, 
Subscription Agents or Direct

Colleagues -
I would be very interested in hearing your views on the pros, cons, and
implications of the three methods of acquiring e-book collections:  via
monographic vendors, subscription agents, or direct from the publisher.
Thank you for your perspectives.
Janet
