Hi Amie, are you referring specifically to print approval plans?  A quick search of Library Literature shows more recent articles about e-approval plans, and one on print that specifically mentions YBP, now GOBI.

Could you do an RFI request to ask vendors who might be on this list to contact you if they offer the type of approval plan you are interested in?

I know that several European vendors offer approval programs, but those might not fit your collection parameters.
Good luck!

Subject: [ALCTS-acqnet] Approval vendors for academic libraries


Hello,



We are considering an RFP for approval book vendors.  I am wondering if there are any libraries that use anyone besides Coutts/Proquest or EBSCO-GOBI.  Typically we need to have 3 vendors to consider when taking bids, so I just want to make sure if there is anyone else to consider.


Thank you!
