Hi,
Does anyone out there subscribe to Lloyds List online via Informa? We have subscribed for many years but they are now saying that despite previous agreements made our licence now entitles us to only 3 concurrent users - and those have to be named! This is completely unrealistic for our numbers of students who need it. They want to charge us £9000 (an increase of £6,800) for unlimited online access. I think this is an outrageous price for access to just one title. We do get access to Lloyds List through LexisNexis but this is the text of the articles only and our users require the images, tables, graphs etc. as well.
I would be interested to know how many other institutions subscribe to Lloys List via Informa and actually pay for unlimited access. Also, if anyone has any information about other ways of subscribing I would be grateful to hear about them.
Thanks,
