From: NSLA Consortium <[log in to unmask]> Date: Fri, 29 Jul 2016 03:45:39 +0000 Hi Michael The National and State Libraries Australasia (NSLA) Consortium has recently developed its website http://www.nslaconsortium.org.au and have a page specifically for vendors. http://www.nslaconsortium.org.au/working-us The information provided includes the Consortium's Statement of Principles Guiding Licence Negotiation. Vendors' licence agreements are assessed against this. It also includes information on our preferred pricing model, rights for access and use and statistics We will be sharing the page with our vendors, previously only the principles were provided from the website. We hope that the new page will set clear expectations/understanding of the Consortium and better educate vendors about our environment. Regards Libby -----Original Message----- From: Joyce McDonough <[log in to unmask]> Date: Thu, 28 Jul 2016 15:39:47 -0400 Michael- Our Information Sheet for Vendors does not specify terms of licensing. The Information Sheet does describe Columbia's expectations in terms of privacy, cookies, personal IDs/passwords and an expectation that we must be able to make the resource available to the entire Columbia community both on and off campus with users validated through the University's authentication/authorization system. The Information Sheet also provides information about the number of users, our IP ranges and other data vendors typically request. Most vendors find the page useful.

Does your library have a public-facing webpage that lays out for vendors what to expect in terms of licensing: mandatory terms, processes, state regulations, and so on? Do you share this page with vendors to establish and formalize shared expectations? Has having such a page been helpful in negotiations? Any insights would be most appreciated.
