Negotiating Services and Prices:
Perspectives from a Librarian, a Publisher, and a Vendor

Saturday June 15, 2002, 1:30-3:30
Georgia World Congress Center (GWCC) Room A314

Sponsored by the ALCTS Serials Section Acquisitions Committee

Librarians, publishers, and materials vendors all operate within
certain fiscal and operational realities: do you know what they are? Join us
to learn what each group is willing and wanting to negotiate and why, such
as service charges, subscription and package costs, consortial deals. We
will then focus on strategies for successful and productive negotiations,
including how to continue to ask for what you need when the answer you hear
is no.

Speakers:

Rick Burke, University Librarian, University of Judaism, and
Director, Statewide California Electronic Library Consortium (SCELC)

Adam Chesler, Marketing Manager, Electronic Products and Services,
Kluwer Academic Publishers

Trisha L Davis, Head, Serials and Electronic Resources Department,

Kim Maxwell (moderator), Serials Acquisitions Librarian,
