A number of vendors charge e-book hosting fees, but waive those fees if you purchase other products from them. Sage, on the other hand, charges per title, but they have a maximum $500 hosting fee. I would recommend always looking at potential hosting fees as part of the negotiation process for a new license. Lindsey Reno Acquisitions Librarian Earl K. Long Library University of New Orleans From: acqnet-request_at_lists.ala.org [mailto:acqnet-request_at_lists.ala.org] On Behalf Of Atwell, Mary Sent: Wednesday, April 25, 2018 7:55 AM To: 'acqnet_at_lists.ala.org' <acqnet_at_lists.ala.org> Subject: [ALCTS-acqnet] Sage Handbook Hosting Fee Hi Everyone, I've been in collections development for 3 years now and just received a $25 hosting fee invoice for a Sage handbook title we purchased last year. I verified that the bill is real, and am waiting for additional clarification, but this seems so odd. Am I missing something? We have hosting fees for database purchases, but I've never seen one for a single e-book title. Thanks!
