Status of CHEST/ISI ResearchSoft Negotiations for an Agreement for
------------------------------------------------------------------
EndNote, ProCite and Reference Manager
--------------------------------------
Following CHEST's request for commitments to this proposed agreement,
CHEST is continuing negotiations with ISI ResearchSoft to:
a) attempt lower pricing; which currently seems unlikely
b) seek perpetual use rights; after participation by Institution for
3 years
CHEST is currently awaiting a response from ISI ResearchSoft on these
matters.
We are also concerned about home use rights and licensing of the
products separately following comments that many of you have sent
concerning this proposal.
Finally, if we fail to reach agreement with ISI ResearchSoft, we will
negotiate for the best terms with Adept Scientific; the new owners of
CiteWise.
Please accept our apologies for the delay. We will advise the community
as soon as we have further, significant news on negotiations.
