In an effort to make our acquisition of periodicals more efficient we are
considering moving from a number of local newsagents to a single
subscription agent such as Swets or Ebsco. My concern is how appropriate
such a service is for a County library with many branches. Does anyone
else use a suscription agent like this? In particular I'd like to know:
Is it cost effective?
What are the problems/drawbacks?
Thanks
